Thursday, April 23, 2009 - Nearing the one year mark.

2:35 pm

So I’ve experienced every season in The ATL. The leaves have changed (sorta) and the temperatures have dipped (a little). Tornado warnings have come and gone (and so have a few of my neighbors’ homes) and our one-year lease is nearly up and we’re asking ourselves the big questions: How do we like it here? Are we glad we made the move? How much longer do we want to call this place home?

Well, the answers aren’t that earth shattering. The ATL is a fine city; it has great food, lots to do and really nice weather. But it also lacks character, a distinction that once you smell the air here you know it’s Atlanta. So, we’re giving The ATL a B-.

Are we glad we moved? Yes. It has been a great opportunity for Brandon and I’m still figuring mine out.

Is this home? Not yet, but some people say it took them a long time to really get into Atlanta. Maybe that will be the case for us, too. In the mean time, I’m going to enjoy this nice spring weather before the “hot” that gives this city it’s only true distinction hits.
