Buford Highway Farmer's Market. Buford Highway in general, never been in any of the stores, but I'm fascinated by the signage.
Diversity, my son's kindergarten class looks like a Benetton ad, Love that.
Pho 79, actually just pho in general. I'm pretty sure I'm addicted to the stuff.
Chamblee Consignment Store. Actually I'm pretty sure the husband wishes I'd never found this place! Honey, the more you buy the more you save!
Trees and wildlife, though I do wish the flocks of geese would fly over a little later in the day. I love watching the hawks though. My son is fascinated by them. They're huge and that probably explains why we have no bunnies and very few squirrels.

LOL @ the mod calling the Aquarium a "fish tank"


But some of the things I enjoy about Atlanta are..........

The wonderful weather in the fall.....
Bar and club hopping on Peter's St. and Crescent Ave in that wonderful fall weather.....
Scouring L5P for the perfect outfit....
Then going downtown to Walter's to find the perfect shoes for that outfit.....
Sunday afternoon cookouts at Mozley or Adams Park.....
And Hot summer night's out and about just going with the flow

Default What do I like? Hmm....

What do I like about Atlanta?

1. Pink Pony South
2. Dekalb Farmer's Market
3. Buford Highway
4. Oxford Comics and Games
5. Ru San's sushi
6. Emory University's Library
7. Jimmy Carter Center
8. Progressive and dare I say... LIBERAL-minded people!

Now if only we can bring back a party district on the scale of Buckhead in the early 90's.... Oh well, one can only dream, I guess...
