DISCOVERING ALABAMA

“The nature of life is nature.”

This timeless adage is a favorite quote of mine and the motto of the Discovering Alabama series. For me, this proverb captures the wisdom of Solomon wrapped in the mystique of a Zen koan. Put simply, the community of people is sustained by the community of nature. In turn, the community of nature is enhanced by the caring stewardship of people. But you don’t have to take my word for it. Come along with me as we explore the wild wonders of this land, and in every episode of Discovering Alabama, I think you’ll find your own meaning in the nature of Alabama.​

Come along with me as we celebrate the Bicentennial Anniversary of Alabama and one of Alabama's most historic, prosperous, and growing cities in Discovering Alabama: Tuscaloosa.

And celebrate our 2019 Emmy® Award with Discovering Alabama: State Archives.
