The day after Thankgsiving I had free rein for a ride. My lovely wife was painting for an upcoming show and not having me underfoot gave her more room to concentrate. I did the first ~30 miles of the Silk Sheets 200k as an out and back, starting in Sandy Springs and heading generally southwest. Sandy Springs was a very strange place, full of big houses on gated lots. Clearly these people want to keep the riff raff out. Even the main cemetery was gated. Bizarre. I think Sandy Springs folks know the people who they go to church with a lot better than they know their actual neighbors who live next door.
Once out of Sandy Springs things were much nicer -- mostly industrial and light industrial areas along the Chattahoochee River. And Six Flags. Can't forget that.
Big houses, but they have to pass the plate to take care of small cemeteries. Nice.
And I couldn't even find it. It was up here somewhere
And near this (lovely) house

Doesn't this sound appetizing?
