Atlanta History Center

Was lucky enough to be guests today at the Atlanta History Center with the minis! We had a fantastic day. I had no idea how large the AHC is, and we explored just about every acre!


We loved the Smith farm and Ryan especially enjoyed the Quarry Garden. I forget sometimes how gorgeous Georgia really is, and this was a great reminder. I took over 100 pictures!

We had a fantastic tour guide, Marvin, who took special care to include the minis.



Inside, the minis loved the Bobby Jones golf exhibit and I was drooling over the Gone With the Wind manuscript and letters from Margaret Mitchell. They were a hoot to read, she was an opinionated Catholic! We made a quick stop into the Coca-Cola Cafe before checking out the other exhibits. The minis couldn't believe the Olympic Games area with the floor being made of the basketball court from the 1996 games in Atlanta. They asked when we could come back, and Jack wonders if they decorate the Smith house for Christmas!


It's official. I kind of love Atlanta.
