Henagar, Alabama - Old Buildings

6/26/11

We left Scottsboro, Alabama for Crossville, Tennessee on a scenic road.  Downed trees littered the sides of the road and the fields beyond around Henagar, Alabama.  While there was evidence of the April tornado, much had been cleared up and we stopped in Henagar so that Joan could take some photos of the damage done by the awesome power.

This link shows the distant tornado as it was happening.

The immediate aftermath of the tornado is shown in this clip.

Henagar is a small town with some interesting buildings.  Oliver's Feed Mill looks like it's for sale.

One of the most attractive buildings is this Noah's ark front which is probably a nursery or child-care center.

The ark is across the street from a relic of an interesting tire business.

Note the big tire at the front door.  This panoramic visual is made from two shots using Zoner Photo Studio 12, a free photo program.


This silhouette above a next-door business is common throughout the rural United States.
