Not only do I love Tuscaloosa but I also love all of Alabama's 67 counties. I remember almost fifty years ago cruising the narrow streets of French-speaking Quebec City, Quebec and seeing a "63" Alabama tag on the car in front of me. It really warmed my heart to see someone from home. One of my favorite activities on my walks is the identification of Alabama car tags. Tuscaloosa with its students from all over the state makes it ideal for identifying every tag from a "1" to a "67".
