A mural along the road somewhere. *

Jimmy Carter is a Georgian, big hero in this town. We live not far from the Jimmy Carter Center, but this statue is at the state capitol. *

When Danika's parents came to visit we strolled through the botanical gardens. The conservatory was delightful, reminding me of Panama. *

I am putting together two bikes for a trip in May. The first was ready to go so Korinne and Angela joined me for a romp out to Stone Mountain. *

First we rode MARTA (the local commuter train, the new ticket vending machiens for which are sporting proudly the receipt logo that Yours Truly designed at Cubic!) out to Avondale station... *

...and then rode the nine miles to the largest hunk of granite in Georgia. If you want to learn about biotite-plagioclase gneiss xenoliths, check out http://gpc.edu/~pgore/stonemtn/stonemountain.html

They call Stone Mountain the largest chunk of exposed granite in the world, but what about freaking Half Dome? *

I was bummed to discover the San Diego Cycle Cafe was closed permanently. *

Everybody's favorite ice cream:
DRY ICE! *

Great old brick buildings like this abound in Atlanta. *

these are the new MARTA ticket vending machines, recently installed by my old employer CUBIC. *

although i didn't work on this project, they did use the receipt logo i drew for san francisco's BART. here is it! my handiwork all over atlanta! street cred! *
