Screen on the Green

    Thursday night we went out to Piedmont Park for an Atlanta summer tradition: Screen on the Green. This is (for all who aren’t from here) a fun thing they do on Thursdays in June. This past Thursday was the last one, and since Nate’s softball game was cancelled, we thought we’d go and see what all the talk was about.
    TCM puts out a huge screen in the middle of Piedmont Park and they show a TCM movie. The night we went was Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. We didn’t stay for the movie, but just went to check things out. The movie starts at sundown (about 9pm) and Owen was too tired to even try that.
    We had a great time taking a walk through the park. It’s a very picturesque way to see Midtown, Atlanta. Also, summer festivals like this are great fun and draw all sorts of crowds. There are about 10,000 people that come each Thursday night!
