    Green Mountain Trail is really good to go here. A lot of older people go there and try to stay away from Downtown cause of the traffic. Traffic can be bad. Maple Hill Cemetery is the largest in North Alabama. We have a Cemetery Walk every year. You get to hear the tales about the famous people who are buried there, plus the famous cow, Lily Flagg. Also, Dead Children's Playground is next to it. You might see a ghost or two.
    Since you LOVE water so much, I hope you stop in Gadsden, AL. Go to Noccalula Falls after it rains so you can see the full effect.
    Anniston, AL has a great museum. Anniston Museum of Natural History has the largest bird collection in the State.

    As a fellow Pisces, I enjoy the creeks, waterfalls, lakes, rivers, and even the rain in Huntsville. BTW Monte Sano mountain is pronounced Mon tee Say no. Thanks for noticing the cleanliness - the City has a 'Green Team' responsible for landscaping and maintenance.
    Next time you visit, I recommend hiking some Land Trust trails, especially the Wildflower Trail in season (5 minutes from downtown). Also, the Von Braun Astronomical Society hosts Saturday nights at their planetarium on Monte Sano (not now with COVID, but in the before times), usually featuring presentations by NASA employees and telescope viewing (weather permitting).

    Consider putting the street address of each location into the video.
    Consider using an overview map in your video to show where the locations are, and providing info on a suggested order of visitation.
    Consider putting a link to each location in the comment below.
    Consider less of you (God Lord...) and more on useful info, like pricing, when locations are open, etc.
