– building reflections –
i like when buildings reflect the sky, it’s almost like they aren’t even there. here’s a previous photo i posted that’s fairly similar.

– the sterritt family christmas tree –
we went in search of the sterritt family christmas tree a few weeks ago and ended up here: kinsey family farms in gainesville, ga. the drive wasn’t too far… about an hour outside of atlanta. we drank hot cocoa, made s’mores by a warm fire, visited a goat that tried to eat clem’s hat and then rode a tractor out to the far away trees. to say the least, we had a blast! it was great to share the experience with clementine (even though she slept through a large part of it) and start some fun holiday traditions for our family.
we found kinsey family farms on the ga christmas tree growers website. it lists all of the different farms you can visit in georgia that grow their own trees.

– tybee island beach –
we took a day trip to tybee island over the thanksgiving break. somehow gub had still never been, even after all of the years we’ve been visiting savannah. a friend described tybee to us as a “down and dirty beach town.” we love that description and it is fitting. we hope to get back there in warmer times…

– kirkwood mural –
they just painted a huge mural under the bridge near arizona ave and dekalb ave in kirkwood that is awesome! we wish they would have done a similar mural under the rocky ford rd bridge, ours is not nearly as fun.
– ryan & gub
UPDATE: this mural is actually part of living walls and is by atlanta artist hense. here is a previous post with another hense mural.

– tybee island lighthouse –
we went and toured the tybee island lighthouse during our recent day trip to the island. with the help of our baby bjorn, clementine was able to climb to the top! i think we were more nervous up there than she was though.
we also had a great view of the old cockspur island lighthouse from the bridge entering tybee. supposedly there are better views from fort pulaski or via boat if interested.
be sure to check out our previous posts on maine lighthouses, southeast lighthouses and coastal lighthouses!
