Kimberly Grant Huntsville Alabama: Places to Go and People to See!! Submitted by:
Hello hello hello... I was out on one of my searches for a new adventure and I found myself on Airport Road in search of a good meal. Well I decided to go to a place that I used to pass all the time when I lived down South Parkway but never tried. I wanted something new so I looked for a restaurant that I had not tried before and finally settled on....
Luciano Italian Restaurant I really enjoyed it and I was almost mad that I don't live close to it anymore because I definitely want to go back. The wait was not long at all. Because the night was so clear we stepped outside the door to talk. We actually bumped into a very nice lady looking through Homes and Land magazine and she will be coming into the office to discuss a couple of things...but that's another story! ;-)
Before we got into conversation good, they were calling us for our table. As we walked through the restaurant everybody just seemed to really be having a good time. I absolutely LOVED the atmosphere. They have garden and patio dining but we chose to sit inside in the lower level. We sat down in a section with a fireplace and gorgeous light fixtures. It had a Tuscan theme and the decor just invited me in to have a meal. LOL... I'm such a Realtor! LOL Our waiter Travis was TERRIFIC and guess what... he's looking for a condo or townhouse for sale to move in a couple of months...but that's another story! ;-) The food was FANTASTIC. It was quick and it was hot and it was GOOD!! I would definitely recommend Luciano to someone looking for good italian food. I will definitely be back back it is a PLACE TO BE in Huntsville Alabama.

Kimberly Grant Alabama A&M Fall Sports
Alabama A&M University has a great fall sports line up this year. I usually work on Saturdays so it has been a LONG TIME since I been able to attend a game. Last year I went to a couple of games and I had a FANTASTIC time. The last game I attended was against Texas Southern University and the Bulldog's won!! (just for me!)
ANY WAY.... that time is almost upon us again. Its almost time for football season and I can't wait. I really am going to take a little more time to attend more events on campus this year. I always enjoy it when I do especially if I get to see people I haven't seen in a while and lost touch with.
Here are the upcoming sports events for Alabama A&M University:
Check out some of the sports events at Alabama A&M University. Not only does Alabama A&M happen to be the Alma Mater of YOURS TRULY and it is an excellent school with an outstanding atheletic department. I'm sure the weather will be beautiful this fall. This will be a great time to check out some great fall sports action!! Kimberly Grant

Huntsville Alabama Jobs and Employment Submitted by: Kimberly Grant, Huntsville Real Estate Agent
We have some great news here in the Rocket City! Madison County remains in the lowest county unemployment rates in the state of Alabama. For the month of June, Madison County had a 3.9% unemployment rate which is lower than the national rate of 5.5%. It is also below the state rate of 4.7% for the month of June. Alabama is now tied with Vermont for the nation's 20th lowest unemployment rate. This is a move up from May when Alabama was number 21. If you are considering a city to relocate, I encourage you to consider Huntsville Alabama. In addition to being located in a county with one of the lowest unemployment rates in the state of Alabama, this is a great place to live and work.

As both a shopper and a student, the weekend that I have been waiting on is here!! 
Elkmont, Scottsboro, Albertville, and Rainsville. These participants span across Madison, Limestone, Jackson, and Morgan counties.
Madison Square Mall and Parkway Place Mall are even staying open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and from 12p.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday. That will give shoppers plenty of time to shop till they drop. The Alabama Revenue Department has reported that 224 cities across the state have decided to participate this year so you might want to check your local area to see if you can join us on this shopping weekend. 
Another month of 2008 has come and gone. The hot summer days are upon us. The Madison County real estate market is still holding steady. I think we live in one of the best areas in the nation for a number of reasons and the current state of our real estate market is one of them.
