New Day New Park Yahoo!!!

Hahn Woods is a beautiful, peaceful easy place to hike and walk the dog. IMG_3556

It is located on Emory University Campus and the creekside trail continues on to Lullwater Park.

IMG_3529We started out on the upper trail. It is about two minutes long but beautiful. IMG_3532Then we went down to the creek side.IMG_3538That is Houston Mill Rd, you can go under it and continue on the trail. We decided to go the other way first. IMG_3545It is so quiet and peaceful.IMG_3550It is so quiet, but beware, there are some joggers on the trail and they come up on you fast and it can spook you.

It is truly lovely. This is on the banks of the South Fork of Peachtree Creek. It is amazing! Let me know if you have been.

Quest for the Best – Fajitas – Red Pepper Tacqueria

It’s back, Quest for the Best – Fajitas. I took a brief break from the Fajita Road for a few weeks and I came back strong, I thought I had a great contender. Red Pepper Tacqueria is a great Mexican restaurant near me with at least one other restaurant.  All of the tacos I have had there in the past have been great! So, it was time to test their fajitas. Fajitas #1The first fajita was excellent. They had a good amount of flavor in the chicken itself, then they used Zucchini and Yellow Squash along with peppers and onions (I personally would have liked a garlic flavor in there too). The guacamole was excellent! But, as I have stated in previous blogs the problem is the cut the chicken before it could rest and all of the juices run out and the flavor goes with it.  So, fajita number two was disappointing. It was sad because it could be great and the rest of their food is very good, to great.

I started with the Tortilla Soup. Fajitas #3It was a huge cup of deliciousness. Lot’s of veggies in there with strips of chicken and a full lovely broth.

So, the quest continues, more later!

Running errands, yes part of Staycation too!

My television died, well the cable did. So I called Comcast to see if it was something in the area or my cable box. Oh, it must be your cable box there is nothing our in your area. I ask for the address, she couldn’t get it to come up on her computer, I was all like, oh I know where it is. Well, I knew where it was. It has moved from Chamblee to Buckhead (a fancy area of Atlanta).

IMG_3522Super nice Xfinity store. Short wait lots to look at.  (The old Comcast office was horrible, like a United States government run organization, you know where everyone has a tude and not a good one) So after I pick up my new box, I noticed a Pink Berry around the corner. Fancy frozen yogurt. I thought I would give it a try.

IMG_3513That didn’t happen. I walked in and I was the only one in the whole place in front of the counter and behind. I gave it a “Hello”. It wasn’t meant to be.

I want to show you a few more shots of the Buckhead skyline from where I was standing.IMG_3514IMG_3515IMG_3516I will take a walking tour in a few weeks to give you a better perspective.

Back on subject. So, I can’t get the new box to work. So, I call Comcast. After being passed around 4 times and still ending up with the wrong person, I ask the lady if this is part of their new advertising for better customer service. So, as I sit here waiting for the Comcast Technician, I found out last night all of my neighbors Comcast was out also.  Pretty funny huh?
