We did the zip line at the Merimac Caverns southwest of St. Louis. Great fun. There are 4 zip lines throughout the trees and we did all of them. This picture is someone else, but we looked just like it.

It Happened: Snow in Georgia
Started snowing about noon. Ground was white but streets were just wet until later in the afternoon. Then it started turning to slush on the streets and sidewalks. Delta cancelled flights out of Atlanta this morning. Good sessions today. Saw some old friends.
This is what it looked like about 4:30 :

The convention center is extremely huge! And this is just one of three buildings.

Snow Predicted for Atlanta!
Here's a shot through the airplane window of the Chicago skyline.
Shouldn't have to wear a winter coat in Georgia, but I'm glad I brought mine. It was cold, cloudy and windy in Atlanta today. They are predicting snow for Friday. Not "if", but "how much". The airport has already cancelled flights for Friday.
I got checked in by 12:30, so took the time this afternoon to see the World of Coca Cola museum. It's only 3 blocks from my hotel. They have a tasting room with all of the Coke flavors from all over the world. There are over 60 different flavors. I tried to taste all of them, but just couldn't do it. There are some that are pretty good, and a lot that aren't worth it. When you leave the tasting room, you get a free bottle of Coke.
After Coke, I walked across the street and walked through Centenial Olympic Park.
And then into the CNN building. I didn't have time to take the tour to see the live broadcast and newsroom. Just walked through the food court and had a sandwich while watching the giant flat screen TV (guess what channel it was on?).
Finally, I walked on to the Georgia World Congress Center to get registered for the conference starting on Friday. Walked past the Georgia Dome. Big building. Got my walking in today. But, I'll take the shuttle bus to the conference tommorow.
This was kind of a long post, but I don't think I'll have much time for sightseeing after this. Maybe some quick updates. Have to check back to see what happens.
