Here are some facts about Alabama: Capital - Montgomery; nickname - Heart of Dixie; crops - cotton, peanuts, corn; name is from Indian tribe Alibamu; sites of interest - U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Battleship Alabama in Mobile; 2/3 of Alabama is covered with forests. Average temperature in January is 50 and in July is 80.

Caption: Come and enjoy Alabama's Gulf Shores, a 50-mile stretch of some of the world's most beautiful beaches, a sight you'll never forget. These sugar-white beaches and clear blue-green waters are full of fun-filled activities for the whole family, and all at a great value.
