letter from my brother!
 
Ok I recieved a letter from my brother today! He's a marine and he is in Iraq, and has been since Feb 14.
He said he was gased and was worried about incoming scuds. but not to worry he would be home. I was dated 3/25/03. and was writen in crayon. but i was really good so hear from him! I can't wait till he comes home.

My family recently moved to the Northern GA area, and he has never been here. I am think about places to take him when he comes homes.
So far I have came up with the Atltana Zoo, the cyclorama, 6 flags and the coco cola factory.

Can any one give me idea?

When I used to live in the Atlanta Area, my family and I went to Stone Mountain a lot to have picnics and watch the laser show. Don't know it they still do that...

There's a great sonic-type resteraunt called the Varsity

Mall of Georgia, lol! Where he can really stretch his legs!

FYI the Varsity takes some getting used to, lol. The food can be a little greasy but that's part of the charm. Also, a big thing are onion rings and orange drink (sorry, can't think of the name of it). You can sit in your car or go inside. Warning, some of the rooms have classroom type chairs which may be a little tight for some figures, lol.


Party Central is Buckhead.

Underground Atlanta is so-so..I wasn't too impressed the last 2 times I was there (but had lots of fun when other AGDs and I ate at Micks).

Go up South Cobb Parkway to see the Big Chicken!

Underground....just make sure nobody whistles or taps their foot to him in the bathroom.

I'm so glad you heard from your brother!! That is the best news anyone could ever hear I think!

On a similar note, I just heard from one of my pledge brothers who is in Kuwait (was in Iraq for 6 weeks). He is a nurse and was treating Iraqi POWs.

No crayon letters, but he is doing well which is very nice to hear!
