The can't-miss sites that Atlanta is famous for aren't exactly family
establishments. 8-)
Seriously, though, late March would be a great time to go to Stone
Mountain. It's east of the city. You can't miss it. You can see
everything from up there.
During the day, you might want to take the CNN Studio tour at CNN
Center.
Don't make the mistake of thinking that Atlanta has a downtown night
life. The city shuts down at 6PM, and all nightlife moves up to
Buckhead or to the "satellite cities." (hey to Tom Wolfe.)
Any other ideas, guys?

Stone Mountain (but only when it gets warmer),
Cyclorama (takes about 20 minutes),
High Museum (haha),
Six Flags (but it's off season),
Braves game (also off season),
Falcons game (off season),
Hawks game (off season),
Ga Tech football (off season),
1996 Olympics (off).
Atlanta really isn't a place to visit unless you have a reason.

Abso-fkn-lutely!!! It's near the Federal Pen that burned a few years ago.
Rumor has it that Harold's inspired a breakout many years ago - seems the
aroma was too much to bear for a couple of cons. They were recaptured in
Harold's.

Yeah, we're going down there to visit friends that stoopidly moved away from

Amacalola Falls, where the Appalachian Trail begins, is beautiful. My
wife and I stayed at the lodge at the top of the falls once.
> The Georgia State Botanical Garden
Is that the one in Lawrenceville? There's also one in Atlanta itself
near Piedmont Park, but I think that's the Atlanta Botanic Garden.We
thought about having our wedding reception at the one in Lawrencevill,
but all that was available was outside, and outside in July was either
going to be hot or rainy.
While in Lawrenceville, you can also drive through town and see the
Lawrencville Historical Courthouse outside of which Larry Flynt was
shot. (And where we DID have our wedding reception, on what turned
out to be the only rain-free, reasonably cool weekend in July that
year.)
> Is there any local beer I should check out?
Nothing immediately springs to mind, but the Atlanta Biergarten in
Buckhead brews some pretty good stuff. Just so I can bring up my wife
(at least indirectly) in every paragraph, I'll mention that the last
time I went there I drank too much, came home really late, and had to
sleep on the couch.
Oh. And if you're really starving for some place you can spend money
and wait in line for a big honkin; advertisment, you can go downtown
to the "World of Coke." (My wife and I went there once.) The only
cool thing is at the end they have serve-yourself soda-fountains with
coke products, both foreign and domestic, and a plentiful supply of
sample cups. My advice to you: stay away from the Floral Fanta.

If you go up there, be sure to eat at the Smithouse in Dalonaga (?). I

I used to live across the street from Juniors (Smith 420) before it
got torn down to build the GSU dorms. Good breakfast. And lunch.
I only had to call the cops from my dorm room to report a crime twice
all year. One night some kids broke the window at Juniors and one
time some guy was getting mugged right under the street light by
Juniors. Nothing like living a block away from the housing projects.

Oh, gag. I was talking about microbreweries, where they brew beer with actual

Amicilola Falls, north of Atlanta, is quite nice. Nice hiking trails
there as well.
And, as a bonus, while passing through Dawsonville on the way you can
stop in at Bill Elliot's garage...

The Phoenix Brewing Company, immediately south of I-285 on Roswell
Road (in The Prado), has some awesome brews. If they have a batch made
up try some of their San Francisco Sledgehammer (ODL!!). They also
have a good Oatmeal Stout...

Amicalola Falls has the longest drop of any falls east of the
Mississippi River. It is not, however, a completely vertical drop.
They are just measuring from sea level - top to sea level - bottom.
They are beautiful, though...

how about gumbo-a-go-go?

For a great brewery or two try the Phoenix Brewery at the Prado (Sandy
Springs exit on I-285), great food too, or The Mill in Piedmont Park, we
have our Christmas party there every year, and they have gotten
progressively better. Or drive out to Kennessaw (about 80 miles from
L'ville since some bastard keeps voting down an outer perimeter) and you can
have a brew I made in my garage.

Ugh...dunno about Laughing Skull, but Red Brick needs to stay a part of
the sidewalk. Unfortunately, that's about the only brewery in Atlanta,
though I'm sure there are a million brewpubs. If you want selection, go
to the Taco Mac in Sandy Springs, where there are some 150 different ones
on *tap*.

I'm heading up to the big city tomorrow myself, to check out the

between the Clinch Mountain Boys and The Aquarium Rescue Unit.
Psychedelic. Hick-Hop. Space-age bluegrass. Want to be blown away,

Anyone ever see the movie Sherman's March by Ross McElwee? Starts out as
a documentary about the march, he runs out of money, and the rest of it is
about his interaction with various women as he continues following that
bastud She*man's march from savannah up through South Carolina. There's a
scene that was shot in my front yard...the the monument to Sumter, SC
Women's Confederate Dead. Actually, it's across the street, but I don't
have a yard, either. :-)

Actually, the last place I tried it was at The Colorado in about 1994.
I haven't tried it since. For me those places are like casinos. I take

Junior's is now located on the Tech campus. funny thing that, he
dropped out or was kicked out and made a virtual fortune selling food
to hungry college students. ate there most every day when i was

I second that, phoenix is a nice brewpub, but hard to find. its
scrunched way back in a strip mall like place. i also remember there
is a brewpub steakhouse with a texan theme on highway 92 between
woodstock and alpharetta. its not texas cattle company. thats a nice
brewpub as well. also try the beergarten and john harvards (a chain).
