Document Jam my ass....

When the phone/fax machine at work began to give trouble, I took care of it...

Lord have mercy.... 16 hours at Stone Mountain...

the day began at a pavilion rented by loudon communications, we were invited to come along... many thanks to them for this treat, we had a good meal right on the lake as the boats went by...

this was the view of the mountain from the pavilion..

the train is coming!

about to pull out

awaiting the begining of the laser show, we were treated to special seating.. the first time i've ever had reserved seats for this & got to sit in a comfy chair instead of on the ground..

the view behind us

This video is of the ending of the laser show, we rode the "ducks"(land & water vehicles) around on the lake & through the park, saw the 4D movie(you get wet), rode the train, ate a good meal or two, visited the plantation & petting zoo, rode the skylift to the top of the mountain, saw the "treetop adventure", saw the grist mill, the quarry, the marina, the put-put golf, many many shops & artisans... it was a long day indeed.. but we had lots of fun...
