Each week, Huntsville’s own Grant Nickalls will inspire us, entertain us, make us laugh or perhaps cry, but always he will remind us why Huntsville is the best place on earth to call home.
This week in Our Town, Grant on the fine art of the flip flop, as illustrated by recent events.

I agree with Grant. Pipeman was such an exciting concept in the planning and a wonderful, thoughtful gift of art. I grew up in Huntsville but other than visits I haven’t lived there since 1962, however I was so proud that my home town would enjoy such an unusual piece of art.
Possibly with some passing of time, Pipeman will find acceptance although it will no longer be “avant garde.” It seems to be true, times change quickly but attitudes are very slow to catch up.
