Huntsville Happening

Read about Homely Huntsville’s writer’s recent experience out on the town:

The Huntsville Havoc Experience

I admit, I’ve never been much of a sports person. In past days, you might have even caught me using words like “sportsball” and zoning out during football games. Now that I’m older and wiser, I’ve found that all I needed was to trade out the balls for hockey pucks, starting with my first game a few months ago. 

NEACA Craft Show Spring 2024

Recently, I was able to attend the NEACA Spring 2024 Craft Show at the Von Braun Center in Huntsville, Alabama. 

The NEACA (Northeast Alabama Craftsman Association) Craft Show is a Huntsville based event that is held three times a year. There is a spring show, a fall show, and a Christmas show. 

Huntsville History
