snow day

We had a real, live snow day in Atlanta. Which is a little odd considering it was in the 70's last week. But global warming aside, I had a lovely snow day. Here are some pictures taken around Oakhurst/Decatur of the first real snow I think I've seen since we had that crazy ice storm three years ago. This is my church....
Tony and I went to see a burlesque show at Smith's Old Bar on Friday night, and I told him while we were out that it was supposed to snow around midnight. Of course, when we left at midnight, no snow at all. We went to another bar, and left around 2:00 AM. Still no snow. But Saturday morning, SNOW! Now, I didn't spend a lot of time actually out in the snow, but it just sort of gives you the feeling that you absolutely do not have to leave the house, and everyone has permission to get cozy and shut themselves off from the outside world. Saturdays, I usually get up early, run errands, go to my Cardio Funk class at the Y. But this Saturday I slept in, made brunch, Tony and I played Guitar Hero (which I am vastly superior at, at least compared to him...granted, this is the only video game I would ever be able to say that about), and watched a movie. I had plans to go see Sharon Jones at The Variety that night, but it was so cozy inside, I stayed in some more.
