Had a chance to see Memphis from 34k feet the other day on my way to Atlanta to show Common Side Effects at SCAD Animation Fest.
You can orient off the Bass Pro Pyramid there.
Spending a week living out of The Peabody Hotel in Memphis some years ago, now that was a special treat. A chopped chicken sandwich from Charlie Vergos’ Rendevous, enjoyed with a nice red wine while sitting in the lobby observing the ducks and the people? The ducks are tamer!
Well anyway after passing Memphis we flew right into the swirl of Helene.
Flying into a hurricane is a solved problem I guess, no one even fussed too much.
When the rain cleared up saw enough of Atlanta to conclude: I like it! Seems like a place where a person could just vibe.
At Videodrome took a photo of a movie I’d like to see:

Do you think there are more trees in Atlanta than in Los Angeles? – Tom Schreffler
Tom it’s Steve here. I would say LA as it’s like 5x the size of Atlanta, and includes some national forest BUT if we’re doing shrubs and overall greenery, Atlanta could compete! Atlanta is certainly “lusher” per square yard or meter or whatever measure you prefer
