Rebuild the Theatre.

Georgia Theatre fire

This is a tragic event for Athenians, musicians and guests who have enjoyed countless shows at this iconic venue. This paints my memory of watching Apocalypse Now in the balcony a more surreal color. Or the many times the place felt like it was on fire from all the folks packed in to see a great show.
Much of downtown is without power this morning as a precaution.

And just to keep it going for those birds, the goldfinches came back to the thistle buffet after an absence of a week or two. They’re bright yellow, all dressed up in breeding plumage.

Posted a bunch of snow photos. Very proud of this resilient daffodil:

A bunch of us got together for the beginning of the new year to celebrate Granddaddy’s 93rd birthday. We had quite a crowd at Persimmon Hill Country Club. It puts the “country” in Country Club, so it was good eatin’. It was good to see everyone, including friends of G’pa, my parents and aunts and uncles, and some of “the men” from the Tuesday night Hearts game (where friendship ceases).
Whether it’s his ability to extinguish candles, play a devastating game of bridge, check a record, pick a jury, land General Patton on a beach, use a slingshot, or trap a rabbit, I’m impressed with my Grandfather. So y’all give it up. Remember who you are, and use your head for something besides a hat rack.
