The Ghosts Over The Mountain
Imagine a moment of bliss. Euphorically tilting your head to the sky and basking in the sun for a moment you wish could last forever. The air around you is crisp and light but warm enough to embrace you like a sweatered hug. Where are you? Perhaps a hillside?

Surprisingly Birmingham has these pockets that are just the right place to experience this moment of existential bliss but only in the “right” places.
