November was a perfect month in which to visit the Atlanta area. The weather was mostly in the low to mid 60s, with the exception of about a week at the beginning of the month when it reached the 80s (with humidity, ick). Our neighborhood was a beautiful place to walk.
Continuing our walks like we did at home helped us not to feel like tourists all the time. Our neighborhood became more familiar. We did laundry, shopped for groceries, got our flu shots, renewed our prescriptions and stayed at home to cook quite a bit during our month here. It can be unsettling to be on the go all the time and not to do “normal” daily things. Plus, after the family reunion, we caught colds and were forced to lie low for awhile to get better, and also to not spread our germs with our family.
