Fernbank Museum of Natural History on 767 Clifton Rd, Atlanta, GA 30307 (404-929-6300) cross street is Ponce de Leon Ave. Sort of downtown-ish. They have dinosaurs!
Chateau Elan, a winery, off of I-85, is 45min north or Atlanta. $5 tour; $5 wine tasting; $90 for 50min massage. They also have a beautiful inn. I ck'd the price...$367 - $199 for 1 person for 1 night.
Too much for me at the moment.... Address is 100 Rue Charlemagne, Baselton, GA 30517 (1-800-233-WINE)
At or around Stone Mtn, back in the mid 80's, I remember going to an
antique car museum. I tried but cannot find it. Does anyone know about it or have interest in it? I'd like to know if its still around/where.
And, I'm another of those who can't do lots of hiking or stay out in heat due to health problems.

Count Roberta & I in for a GTG. We've been to Chateau Elan several times and it's a great place to meet & socialize. Don't really have to spend the night, unless you want to. There's a wine tasting event (Vineyard Festival) scheduled for August 29th from 1-5 PM. $75 per admission ticket (advance purchase required). We went last year & stayed over 'til Monday AM. This is the 14th year of the event and the wines are plentiful as winemakers come from all over.
But we're up for whatever the group decides.
