@abasket, please tell your D that Atlanta isn’t always this horrid…she is officially invited to come back and hang out in Piedmont Park (inspired by Central Park in NYC), Stone Mountain Park (largest granite outcropping in the world), nearby lakes, museums, theatre, ballet, etc. We even have IKEA ! So much to see and do, and a variety to please just about everyone.
The joke around here is if you don’t like the weather, just wait a few hours and it will change. We add a sweater to wait at the bus stop in the early hours, then take sweater off before noon. Change into shorts after work, and then maybe pull up the extra layer of covers to go to sleep. Our more normal weather is to have rough thunderstorms and then they are done in just a couple hours. We just don’t know how to handle a full week of continuous rain…
