What a great day it was today.  The Beltline Trek and Tour was a big hit.  In spite of some torrential rains on the trip down town and a little early lightning and thunder,  the weather couldn't scare this group of diehards  away!  Other than a small bit of mist at the beginning of our pre-tour hike we were protected as usual by Joyce's weather bubble over the event.   
 
We had a nice walk on a portion of the Beltline and then a breakfast treat at The Little Tart in the Krog St. Market before returning to the Marta parking lot to meet the tour bus.  We got to see some of the unique works of art along the Beltline and some very old and very new architecture as well as learning a great deal of information that most of us had no prior knowledge of before this day!  We even encountered a couple of the "tiny doors" along the route.  I for one look forward to doing more events along the Beltline after this tour.  
 
I think everyone along on this event will agree that the three-hour bus tour was full of great facts about Atlanta!  What a great day to be alive.  Also, please help me to wish a great big WELCOME to new member Eileen!  It was nice to meet you this morning, Eileen!  Hope you will continue to join us on more events here at the AOC.  ~  Mark
