Default RE: Alabama hunters?

I couldn't believe what i saw when i got there. It is literally just a gas station and a burned down building that got a name designated to it from the looks of it.
You are probably not going to believe this but Lower Peach Tree used to be alarge town about 100 years ago. It was once a major port of call for river boats on the Alabama river. It had it's own newspaper and was big enough to support the practice of 4 doctors. A huge and extremely powerful Tornado completely wiped it off the face of the earth back in 1913. The entire place looked like a plowed field. By 1913 the river boatera was pretty much over and done with so there was just no reason to rebuild the place after the storm. Little bit of trivia for you there that your family and fellow hunting buddies may not know.
