Nothing Beats an Afternoon Nap (D310)
The heat wave is hitting Atlanta again. As temperatures soar outside it seriously limits our options for outside activities… no long walks or picnics in the park.

Inspired by Photographer Robert Frank: A Different View of NY & Manhattan (D34)

I’ve been challenged by Robert Frank’s willingness to defy the status quo and his intentional [...]
