My Home Town...ironically enough, called Homewood.

Homewood is a nicely-sized city within the metro area of Birmingham, Alabama, and is the home of the mighty Homewood Patriots.

Come visit the website of my high school, Homewood High School.

I worked at the Homewood Public Library in the Children's Department for three summers....come visit the website...it has a whole new look.

Homewood is also lucky enough to have one of the best classic rock stations in the nation...visit its website here.

Or you can travel over their morning show website...The John Boy and Billy Big Show..

Other Interesting Sites in the Area

This is the Arlington House, a fully restorated Antebellum house in the middle of downtown Birmingham.  I worked here a couple of times as a tour guide because I was a Birmingham Belle from 1997-1998.

Birmingham is home to the largest iron statue (55ft tall)  in the world, representing Vulcan, God of the Forge.  It was sculpted by Guiseppe Moretti and was given to the city after the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in 1904.  The light in its hand is green except on days when someone has been killed in a car accident, and then it is red.  Vulcan sits atop Red Mountain and faces downtown Birmingham, but Homewood is "over the mountain" and so we are privileged enough to view his large rear end, which is not covered.

The Birmingham Zoo is a large zoo that is home to many endangered animals. It has been recently restored...visit the webpage by clicking on the picture.
