I'm older than ancient, apparently.

Teenagers have no filter when it comes to some things and their perspective is priceless. Yesterday was a perfect example of this when a wonderful, kind and normal 17-year-old exclaimed...


"Whooooa...I'm gonna have kids waaaaay before 28 - that's ancient!!"

Are we having fun yet?

Snowlanta!

It's the third day in a row that students are out of school, classes are already cancelled for tomorrow and people are encouraged not to drive. The main streets melted and aren't so bad, but the side streets are still ice rinks. I walked to the Chastain Park with my camera and was as far from the bumper cars as possible, wondering what was so important that so many people had to drive.

The best part about wandering around an icy, hilly golf course: sliding down the hills on my bum. The 5-inches of snow is now covered by such a thick layer of ice that it was actually easier and safer to sit down and slide all over on my bum instead of try to walk. And, of course, it was way more fun.

Here are some pictures...oh, and what's your best suggestion for the last photo of the television? Yes, a television. Definitely the not something I expected to see on the pedestrian path.
