Native American Festival

The Native American Festival (Pow Wow) at Stone Mountain was pretty good. A lot of dancing and enterainment. One of the good things or at least I think it is good is there was not a lot of money takers (vendors) there. They close up on Sunday so make some time to check them out.

Snow - Georgia Style

The big white blob is a hill of snow. Here in Georgia we don't get to see to much of that stuff, so we make it! What a deal. Anyway, Stone Mountain is gearing up for the winter snow park, so get your cardboard belly skinners ready to rumble!

Hillcrest Pig Races

	Ever been to a pig race? If not, then make plans to attend one. The races at Hillcrest Farms are wonderful, especially for those that are truely kids at heart. The pigs are cute and funny as they are running down the back stretch.  One of the little guys actually was distracted by my camera and started to check it out, but at the last second changed his mind.
	Pig races are not the only thing racing at Hillcrest. Horse races are at hand as well. To add a little excitement they give the men in the stands a chance to ride a wild horse in a heated race. The horse is one of those stuff horse heads (plush toy) on a stick. You have to see it to believe it. They are wacky!
