Ramble On!

Folks, I haven't been getting to Selma lately to take enough photographs to support my daily photo blog. So, please scroll through and enjoy hundreds of pictures from the past four years. Then, follow me to The 3R Ranch for a few Selma entries and a laid-back lifestyle in rural Alabama!

Thanks!

February Theme Day (Fountains)

The City Daily Photo Blogs are featuring fountains for the February Theme Day, and while I've posted photos of Selma's municipal fountain several times, here it is again! The fountain flows in a pleasant little park between City Hall and the public library. So come on down, sit a spell and listen to the music of the fountain. In a few weeks, I bet some birds will tune right in as well!

WELCOME!

Selma is among the oldest cities in Alabama and has the largest contiguous historic district. It is known for its Civil War and Civil Rights history. The Battle of Selma was one of the last fought in the War Between the States, and the town was a center for the Voting Rights Movement in the 1960s. Today, with a population of about 20,000, Selma is the largest town in the western Black Belt region. The Black Belt, named for the color of its soil, stretches across Central Alabama from Mississippi to Georgia.
