My favorite spot is an overpass crossing over Freedom Parkway (the road to the Carter Center). It is a western view of the city and looks great at sunset.

i actually hadnt been to piedmont before. i'll have to check that out. i found a real nice view from centinniel park the other day though.

the overpass on freedom pkwy is that safe? away from cars and any bums walking up on you?

Dick Mays · December 19th, 2006, 01:46 PM

I could still meet Thur evening at Georges. Where is this place?

Bob Safay · December 20th, 2006, 08:48 AM

Are you familiar with the Virginia-Highlands area of Atlanta? Not far from Piedmont Park. Georges is almost right on the corner of Virginia and Highlands. It sits between the gas station and the Highlands Hardware store. So how many can make it on Thursday night at 7 pm????

Solomon Chase · December 20th, 2006, 11:19 PM

I'd love to go, but I'm busy on thursday from 7:30 to 9pm.

Bob Safay · December 21st, 2006, 06:49 AM

Solomon, sorry you can't make it tonight. I am sure we will get together again after the holidays. Bob

George Ellis · December 21st, 2006, 08:23 AM

I am going. Will have my Humahumanukanukaapua'a hat on.

Dick Mays · December 21st, 2006, 12:46 PM

I am going, and will be looking for the hat...

Bob Safay · December 21st, 2006, 01:45 PM

I'll be the bald guy with the mustache in a leather jacket drinking beer. Bob

George Ellis · December 21st, 2006, 01:56 PM

I have not heard from Ms. Dill in a couple of days. Hope she did not miss this.

Dick Mays · December 22nd, 2006, 02:49 PM
