Moving to Cullman AL. Anybody ever been there?

It's farm country and looks like a nice place. Hilly and curvy winding roads.
I'm Rebuilding an old farmhouse.

Starting anew is the fun part of life, now I start looking up all the favorite things. Hockey, Dirt Track, Wrecking yards, Steak houses....

It's not too far from Tennessee, maybe I'll make Pigeon Forge this year.

Sign in if you are nearby.

cullman is a nice area the only bad thing I can think of is its a dry county..
Gatlinburg is well worth the drive

LOL, I didn't notice it was Dry. I am moving to Cullman from a Dry Parish in Louisiana.

My Neighbor here says there's some good Dirt Track racing up in Tennessee. We'll see...

Been to Cullman more times than I can count. I'll be back this spring and summer. My son's baseball team plays a few tournaments there each year.
I live about an hour form Cullman.
I also work in the area from time-to-time.
It is a pretty nice area. Close enough to Birmingham, Huntsville and Nashville, if you ever need to go there.
Best of luck in your move.
Keep us posted.

Athens here, about a half hour from cullman. Nice area, buncha rednecks with big trucks! In other words, I like it!

302V8;

I was just in Athens at x'mas time. If I had known you were there I would have dropped by to say hey. Or maybe thats why you didn't let anyone know. LOL

Thudpucker:

I go through Cullman when I'm down there. Next time I'm there I will give you a holler and we can hook up.

I'm good for 'hollers', just about any time.
I "just got my Cataract cut off" so I'm stuck back in Louisiana for two weeks.

When I get back to Cullman I'll have my 77 F-150 with me.

Hey check out Moulton for some racing its probably 20-30 minutes northwest of cullman. I know the have a track but not sure if its dirt or asphalt. I know we could always here the cars at my parent's house on the weekends all night long.

Fireman, the local kids tell me the Track at Moulton is DIRT!

Columbus Mississippi has it's grand opening this Saturday. I'll be there with my Son in law and grandson.

The track in Moulton is dirt. Some of the guys I work with race there. Its alot of fun and the racing is pretty good too.

Peanut you resurrected this one out of the past.
We just celebrated our first annivirsary here.

I like the Mouolton racing. I went there often last year, and am looking forward to the opener again this year.

I've been sitting in the last stands down by turn 1. I usually have a Button Bill hat, and I think I'm the only one down there wearing one.
Look for me.

I live about 30 minutes from Cullman in Arab. if your into drag racing, check out baileyton drag strip. thats where I hang out and race some times.....look for the red mustang sedan...4 cylinder car runs 10.9 in 1/8.....

Thanks for the Howdy.
I like the Dirt Cricle track. The Moulton track is my most frequent place on Saturday night.

I was involved with Drags as a kid. A friend had a B-Gas car that was in the 13's. (Bring your lunch time for today's cars)

Right now all of the Alabama guys are trying to arrange a Coffee Kaltch.
I think it's gonna be down by Tuscaloosa.
If that happens, you can pick me up as you go by Cullman.
