Yesterday I totally blew myself away! I dropped all of my responsibilities and left them at the door. It was actually quite freeing! We headed to Stone Mountain with the tornados. I have to admit I do not think I have been there in 20 years, showing my age stinks! On a random Tuesday it was not crowded and we were able to go at our desired pace, full speed! We began on Sky hike, this is where my years of gymnastics really paid off! Walking on 4” beams was a breeze, although I do not remember competing on one 36’ in the air! And although we were sporting harnesses, I still couldn’t watch our youngest through the obstacles. I most certainly was not nervous or afraid, who could have been with the random kid ahead of us screaming and crying that the world as he knew it was coming to an end and he wanted off this horrible ride. Good times!
As the day progressed we rode the train, played mini golf, took the sky ride up the mountain and then joined friends on the lawn for the laser show. I know I mentioned it had been at least 20 years since my last visit, right? So you would think that the show would have been “WOW”. I seriously doubt it had any of the kids attention. I am not sure if their lack of attention was due to having friends to play with or the sheer fact that our technology age is so much better than the archaic laser show that has not been brought into our current lifetime. There were some 3D effects I should say. I do realize that it is still called a “Laser Show” and as such it requires well, lasers! I think maybe the content could be updated? Just sayin! But all in all we had a blast at the Rock!
