Candler Park Fall Festival

It's officially fall and I've come to find that in Atlanta, this means fall festivals galore.  The various communities throughout the Atlanta area are obviously very aware that this time of year is their Goldilocks zone for outdoor festivities.  Not too hot, not too cold, just right.  So I decided to hop on the train and hit the first fall festival of the season in Candler Park, a beautiful, quaint, historic neighborhood, with charming and picturesque homes, well-kept and mostly from the 20's,

I had never been to this part of town, so was actually pretty happy that there was a nice little walk from the train station.  Especially since I found my dream house along the way.

Dahlonega and The Foothills

After a first two hot and polluted days in Atlanta we decided to head north a little ways towards the mountains. Specifically, the little town of Dahlonega and The Foothills Scenic Byway.

Atlanta Recon Trip

With my impending move to Atlanta quickly approaching in August my mom and I decided to make a short (see: very short) trip up to gather some reconnaissance on the different areas, look into some housing options and turn in some paper work to the HR department for my assistantship.
