Atlanta's Food - So Yummy

The food so was good in Atlanta. 

Fried Green tomatoes, grilled pork chops

Peach cobbler

The Oscar Meyer Wiener Mobile parked outside our hotel, but didn't have any hot dogs in it

Atlanta is the birthplace of Chick Fila


Gladys Knight's Fried Chicken and Waffles was closed. So Sad!


Chili Dogs from Georgia Tech's famous hangout

My first Collard Greens

Fried Chicken and waffles. A bacon cheddar waffle. Unbelievably good.

I came to try a Georgia peach. The grocery store was selling California peaches. An early frost killed off Georgia's crop.


Fried pulled pork balls, ribs, corn bread, and green beans. Out of this world great.


The number 1 recommended place to go eat in Atlanta.

Go to Atlanta to find the best food. What a great trip!

Martin Luther King Jr's Home Town

Definitely the most memorable part of my trip was visiting Martin Luther King Jr's childhood home, church, and center. Multiple blocks of his neighborhood are now a National Park. It was amazing to sit in the church he preached at and hear his sermons over the loud speakers advocating for equality and to love one another. I'm so glad I went. What a wonderful place. You should go.





The nation's first integrated fire station














The church he and his father were co-pastor's at.



I visited an old nearby civil war era cemetery with all the old time crypts
