We had planned to head off to the Braves game last night after a dinner in the house. But, there was a mass amount of cookie baking going on in the house by Tom's landlord so rather than try to compete for kitchen space, we were easily convinced to head off to the #2 (as voted by some) BBQ place in Atlanta - Community Q.
When I walked in there was enough smoke and grease in the air that I was certain that my hair would never cease to smell like BBQ.
This place didn't look like much on the outside out let me tell you that once again this was some delicious food!! We were informed that people from Seattle don't know how to eat ribs but only after we had ordered something other than ribs so we couldn't be "educated" on how to properly eat ribs. We had fantastic brisket, mac-n-cheese and baked beans. Enough cholesterol and fat for our life, but our soul feels good :)
Then we ventured on public transit to the Braves game. Everyone down here complains that MARTA is not very reliable nor is it nice, but coming from a place without an all-encompassing city-wide train system (yet at least) it seemed just fine to me!
We traveled via the train, then transferred at an underground station
Then we went via complimentary shuttles that they give from the MARTA station to the field.
The weather was gorgeous (albeit, HOT) but we got some cheap seats and settled in for a night of baseball.
As the sun set we got a fantastic view of the city sky line.
It made for a late night--we didn't get home until midnight, but I think it was worth it.
We still have yet to decide what to do with ourselves for the fourth, but I'm sure we'll get something figured out :). Either way, Tom has the day off and we'll be together all day!
