In early Oct., I'll likely travel from Montgomery (Birmingham?) or
Jackson in a figure 8 or circle route* by car with a bit of time on my
hands, taking in the 4 states in Subject. About 1500 miles in 10 days. I
wouldn't mind seeing some science museums, observatories and nature
centers. Any "must see" such sites? LIGO, and Huntsville are on the
list. I'll undoubtedly take in historic locations of the south. I live
near Sacramento. Suugestions (Subject)?
* More like a triangle with tips at Augusta, Memphis, New Orleans (LIGO).
