Sunny 70s and Stone Mountain February 8, 2009

Posted by Conrad Hubbard in : The Chip , trackback

Today was a beautiful day here in Atlanta. It might be February, but it was sunny and in the low 70s. After the winter cold managed to cajole (bully) me into forsaking my regular trips up Stone Mountain, I finally got to climb it again today. I was surprised that I it only took me about 41 minutes to make it from what I call “parking lot to parking lot” after such a long break. (By parking lot to parking lot, I mean the time it takes me to walk from the parking lot where I leave my car, to the trail up the mountain, to climb all the way up the mountain, any time I spend resting at the top, to climb all the way back down the mountain, and to finally reach the same parking lot where I left my car.) After the trip, I popped into the German restaurant there in the town of Stone Mountain and got some dinner and some beer. It was a beautiful, sunny day, closed out with a nice relaxing dinner. My legs are already sore, though. Hopefully they won’t be any worse tomorrow.
