Antique shops abound in Florala and folks come from all over the Gulf
Coast to browse or sort through the stores for the next Antique Road Show
treasure. There are many antique shops located in the century old buildings
downtown and sometimes it makes you feel like you have taken a step back
in time. 


	The Wetlands Park is an elevated walkway, handicap accessible, on
the edge of Lake Jackson in the heart of Florala. The walkway takes you
through a cypress swamp area with many of the plants identified. Stroll
among the moss draped trees or sit in one of the several pavilions located for
your convenience.  

      Finks Mill is one of the few water driven grist mills still in operation in
the South. Corn is ground almost every week day for local markets and not
much has changed here for many years. Located east of Paxton, Fl.

	Numerous sawmills cut virgin long leaf yellow pine from the huge old
growth stands of trees in this area. As the cities grew and prospered the mill
owners and managers built large homes from this prime lumber. Many of the
smaller homes in the area were built for the workers and their families. There
are several examples of these homes still left and represent some of the finest
examples of Southern Architecture in Alabama.
