Jump Back

Take a Jump Back to Atlanta for a minute while I (celsey) throw in my blog post....

Some of the best parts about this road trip have been seeing friends and family that are not usually in our neck of the woods. This was made true with seeing Calla and Kaelin. Calla and I met while working at a YL camp in Oregon, summer of 2005. Since then we have only seen each other a handful of times (two of those being each others weddings). I love friendships like these! The ones where you just hit it off, and distance doesn’t do much to separate it.

While in Atlanta we had amazing food (yes, this does tend to be a theme of this road trip). Calla is and always has been an amazing Cook. She loves to be in the kitchen and make dishes that come alive! We were lucky enough to have spent our Easter in Atlanta with Todd, Calla and Kaelin. Calla treated us to a delectable lamb shank dinner. What a blessing to be surrounded by friends and family on such a special holiday.

Ooh one last thing I loved about Atlanta. There is a farmers market (not the kind you typically think of when you hear this phrase). It is open 7 days a week and is inside. It had absolutely everything you could possibly imagine and it was all fresh. This place was larger than a Costco, and stocked to the hilt. The meat was all local, natural, grass fed, etc. The fish were all caught that day and you had selections from a whole fish to filets of every species imaginable. The apples section was bigger than that of a normal produce section of a grocery store. Fresh homemade breads, cheeses cheeses and more cheeses, nuts, dried fruit, teas, honey, I could go on and on but I think you get the idea. I loved it!!!
