Since this is the first year in a long time that we have been in Atlanta for the 4th, we decided to take full advantage of the festivities. We took a stroll from our house down to Peachtree Road to watch the 60,000+ runners & walkers attempt to finish the annual 10k in the brutal Atlanta July heat.
We saw a few familiar faces and lots of crazy costumes... Most had a patriotic theme. Captain America, Lady Liberty, lots of flags, a few inappropriately scantily clad runners of all ages, shapes and sizes, streamers and plenty of red, white, and blue! Of course there was the requisite beer drinking running group, complete with their beer banner/flag. Fratty.
A fun day so far! We hope everyone is having a happy 4th and enjoying the extra day off from the grind. A special thanks to the men and women of our armed forces for protecting the very freedoms that we enjoy today and everyday!
Cheers & happy 4th!
Meg & Matt
