small pleasures and grainy photos

Everyday at lunch, I like to take a walk. I have always done this. Some places I work at have nice walking areas--I loved walking around midtown Atlanta and I liked going by the horse fields near the public library. One job I had nowhere to walk, and consequentially circled endlessly around the parking lot.

I grabbed a slurpy at the local QT and headed out for my daily walk.


My current job is surrounded by large, busy 6-8 lane roads, so I tend to cross one of these and escape to the cemetery. Its huge, and although I prefer gravestones to plastic flowers, they're growing on me as well. And this particular cemetery backs up to the air force base--which means some quite incredible planes are generally flying very, very low overhead.


(you liked the arrow, didn't you?)






There's also a row of very suburban houses that back up to the cemetery as well. I always think this is odd.

I'll bring my camera instead of just the phone next time.
