Ugh—yum—ugh

Long walk with pizza in the middle
It began as a short walk, but I convinced Joan that a walk along the unfinished Beltline would be an adventure. So we tried the section between Boulevard and Hill Street.

We averaged about 20 minutes per mile, including fighting through the kudzu, but not counting the stop at Grant Central Pizza. Here's the map.


























Is that why they named it Hill Street?

That's all kudzu between me and the top of the hill. Well, not really. That's a steel tower on the left.






























Rest stop
Just so you know, it's not as comfy as it looks.




















The bed my not look so great, but you awaken to the sweet scent of kudzu blossoms.
And yes, kudzu really has flowers, and they smell something like Juicy Fruit chewing gum.










Indiana Joan in a clear area









No wonder trains quit using this trestle



Erosion reveals the wooden pilings supporting the concrete trestle.




We found a lost dog on Atlanta Avenue.
