Ensley A city in Alabama know for its huge steel contributions over the past several decades.

[IndyStarkDeanJr]

Yougstown
It's a city in Ohio.

It's also the title of a song by my favourite song writer and musician, Bruce Springsteen. The lyrics are Incredible. The song tells the tale of the rise and fall of Youngstown, over several generations, from the discovery of iron ore nearby in 1803 through the decline of the steel industry in the area in the 1970s. It evokes American history through several wars.There is a deep contrast between the mythology of the American Dream and the realities faced by its working-class citizens in that song.

There is a solo version in the album.

REIMS

a french city in Grand Est region of France and known for its Champagne productions

[bftlovesRDA]

Reims is a city I have heard about-back when I was in High School studying French. I took 4 years of French but I didn't learn it well. You and our other French and German friends here on RDAnderson.com know English so well!!!!! I am embarrassed at how bad I am with my French language skills. I should study it more!

Anyway, here is one for an "S":

Saint Simons Island

This is a beautiful Island location on the Coast of Georgia, in the US. I have never been there but I know many people who have. It is an ideal getaway location with gorgeous views, lots of historic sites, and outside activities. For someone traveling to the US, it would be a relaxing beach destination.
