A Day the Day After

I spent yesterday in Atlanta with Hannah.  She had several errands that needed taking care of, so we hit the Atlanta roads.  Those roads are, have you not heard, many, confusing, extremely crowded and unendingly under construction.

We drove by a mall that had a full parking lot.  "Full" as in Black Friday full.  UNBELIEVABLE.  What is it that people don't get with a flippin' pandemic?  And Georgia's case are growing as fast, if not faster, than lots of other states.  


She wanted to go to a CBD store (apparently, CBD bath bombs are divine), and sort of chose one at random based on driving time and distance.  It wound up being in a pretty nice shopping center, and neither of us could keep a straight face when we saw the store's neighbor:
It's what looked like a gift/Hallmark-type store, and she and I have seldom been happier to be wearing masks.  Our comments and giggles were concealed.  How much more Southern could you get?

More on the South next time.

As I recall from many times spent in Atlanta while my son swam in meets at Georgia Tech every street is Peachtree and that is so confusing to all of us who have no idea which Peachtree we were on. Stay safe.

Look. . .

Someone (and you know who you are) said that my lion looks like a bear in a veterinary Elizabethan collar. And now I can't unseen it.
