It’s another weekend in Huntsville, and yes – we are still in quarantine. When Alabama is on a travel advisory list for other states right here in the US, you know things have reached a new level of Covid-19 activity. Thankfully, there are several things on our list below to do in a socially-distant way, as well as things to do from the comfort of your own home.

Just don’t forget your masks if you choose to go out. For real.
