For my Show us Your Life post today, we’re telling about you live. I live in Auburn, AL. It has grown so much since I moved here in 1996. I really love the quaintness of this college town. There’s lots of the perks of a large city, just in a smaller setting.

Population: around 55,000
6 miles to Opelika, AL, our “twin” city
35 miles to Columbus, GA
55 miles to Montgomery, AL
100 miles to Atlanta, GA
215 miles to Pensacola, FL
Our city is equipped with nice biking paths, 11 public parks, many walking trails, and a state park.
The downtown area has really changed during the 14 years I’ve lived here. All pretty much for the better. College hangouts/bars scattered among several good restaurants, barber shops, little boutiques, etc.
Bank of Auburn, which used to be Bodega
Here is the famous tree that gets rolled with toilet paper any time Auburn wins.

On Game Day’s the population grows in triplicate! This is a cool article about Tiger Walk that occurs before every home game.
