Antiques! Stone Mountain!

Tim A. Cummins @ 11:23 pm  

Had a fun day today!
t
Had BBQ with Kathy and Jesse at our favorite place: Crazy Ron’s. It’s in the city of Stone Mountain and a great place to eat.

It looks like a train engine.
t

Delicious!

Decided to go to an antique place in Stone Mountain. It used to be the Post Office.
a

I liked this indian.

And this ventriloquist’s doll.

Love these cirrus clouds.

Climbed Stone Mountain!

Glad I didn’t need this.

Or this one!

Talk about shallow root structure!

From the top!

And just in case climbing Stone Mountain isn’t hard enough, put on a vest and fill it with weights!

Could have been me.
d

One of my favorite mysteries! This ancient inscription on Stone Mountain written in a forgotten Indian language!

Azalea 2012! Zoo!

Tim A. Cummins @ 11:25 pm  

Still adjusting to the fact that Ashley is a married woman now. Talked to Geico to see what, if any, changes needed to be made. Looks like it’s fine like it is, I just had to change the address for where the car is located.
