Evans Escapades in Atlanta and at Stone Mountain Park


With a wee bit of a jog on our way home
we could stop over in Atlanta
Meeting Great Nephew Jonah Grey
and meet our newest great nephew. . . Mr Jonah Grey. . .
is he adorable or what?
Meeting Great Nephew Jonah GreyMeeting Great Nephew Jonah Grey
we even babysat the little angelic being,
so Mommy and Daddy could go celebrate Daddy’s birthday. . .
If all goes as planned, they will be transferring back
to Houston soon, so I can get my hands on the little man often. . .
fingers crossed!
of course being this close we wanted to see the Stone Mountain Carving. . .
President Jefferson Davis and Generals Robert E. Lee
and Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson
the carving doesn’t appear that large, but apparently it actually covers three acres,
and is larger than Mount Rushmore. . .didn’t compute in my mind,
and then here is an article that disputes it. . .so I find that info interesting also. . .
Skylift - Stone Mountain Park - Georgia
regardless of it’s actual size. . .according to our
SkyRide Pilot, dinners for twelve are served up there. . .
I would love to see some pics of that happening. . .

on a clear day, the Atlanta Skyline would be awesome. . .this was the best we could do
get that head covered - Uncle David's Tilley - at Stone Mountain Park with Tiffany, Nathan and Jonah
there was a little bit of wind up there, so Uncle Dave shared his Tilley with Jonah. . .
gotta LOVE that face. . .
at Stone Mountain Park with Tiffany, Nathan and Jonah
but nothing beat spending the day with our niece Tiffany
and her beautiful little family. . .come home soon Tiff. . .

We have a brief stopover in Natchez. . .
Williford - Andrea - Jaden Carl Reno
then on to Texas, where the newest of the new great nephews. . .
Jaden Carl is expected to put in an appearance on Monday. . .


and with nephew Aaron's little man Jensen
expected in March. . .
our great nephew total will be six. . .
with one little instant great niece as a bonus. . .
what a lot of fun. . .
we are blessed indeed!

we love sharing our brothers and sisters grands,
since ours have all grown up on us. . .

til next time,
Janice and Dave
