Standing 19 feet tall and clutching a giant hot dog, this Paul "Bunyon" statue, is one of Route 66’s mythic Muffler Man Statues.

Paul Bunyan is a giant lumberjack in American and Canadian folklore. His exploits revolve around the tall tales of his superhuman labors. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Bunyan)
During the heydays of Rt 66, travellers passed hundreds of signs, murals and other forms of roadside advertising. Among the more famous stood the fiberglass giants created during the 1960s by International Fiberglass of Venice, California.
In 1965 one of these giants was placed in front of a restaurant on Rt 66 in Cicero, Illinois, and the original axe was swapped for a hot dog. After this place closed, thanks to the Illinois Route 66 Association, this giant has been moved in 2003 to Atlanta, as a route 66 icon.

Overnight and this morning nice light flakes have covered everything. Very beautiful. Here is the muscadine vine. Maybe more snow throughout the day today.

My son Eric photographing the 'thing' in the middle of the fountain, just inside the courtyard, after entering the building. And me? Trying out a new WIDE lens.

We always stop in Atlanta on our way up to the Carolina's to see family. I have always wanted to get this shot at Piedmont Park in Downtown Atlanta. My husband has been against my going over there as it has a high crime rate at night. On this particular weekend it was crowded with an event so we thought we would go early and see how it went. The park was very crowded...there were only two other photographers at the small lake (they did not stay long). I got a few shots and we headed back to the parking area. I will admit I was glad when we finally reached the car. This park is beautful during day but it does have a strange feeling at night.
