Before Versus After
I had planned a couple of posts about an amazing trip I enjoyed yesterday. About how being able to spend time on a school field trip with one of my kids all day yesterday has to be the absolute best of the seriously kickass benefits I reap as an entrepeneur.
Thing is…
The trip yesterday? We visited the World of Coca-Cola and the Georgia Aquarium. In downtown Atlanta.
At around 10a EST yesterday, I was pointing out landmarks like the CNN Center, Philips Arena, and the Georgia Dome for the first time to my child.
I was able to show where Running Antelope and I had eaten lunch at the Sundial, the rotating restaurant atop the Westin, a while back.
12 hours later, that whole area was torn up by a tornado…the first ever to hit downtown Atlanta.
Luckily, our group was leaving Atlanta by 7p. Very luckily, as Friday rush hour out of Atlanta was not only uneventful, but surprisingly quick. Which meant we were well out of harm’s way. Luckily.
But that doesn’t change the fact that nobody down there in downtown expected it, least of all our group.
We dodged one right there. Lucky, lucky us.
