We went on a local excursion yesterday the Kennesaw State University and beyond. I was impressed with the campus, never having bee there before. We went there to eat in the cafeteria, known as 'The Commons.
You need to Google 'The Commons at KSU" and read about it.
Although, on a summer schedule, it was delightful to eat there. It definately was not as the dining hall when I went to college. The have a number of service kiosks, most were not open today, most likely due to it was a Saturday, from which to get a variety of the daily fair. My first stop was for an omelette, made to order. I did finish off my meal with a Canoli from the bakery/desert. kiosk.
We left Knnesaw State and took a 10 minute ride to the
Civil War and Locomotive Museum on Cherokee Street. The General, of the
"The Great Locomotive Train" is the feature, however, much more of the
Civil War is presented. I have driven past the museum ofter and never
stopped to visit. I am very happy to have been there.
On the way home, we got off of I-575 (exit 11), Sixes road and drove
about 1/2 mile West. Gresham's Mill is on the right. It is on private
property and very little room to park. Another item to search on
Google.
Not bad for all this within an hour of home. Better yet, no shopping involved...or as my friend, Toney Boling says, "I did not have guard the car in the parking lot!"
