LaGrange GA - Movie

Saturday Judy and I woke up with no firm plans. We had been discussing going to Atlanta for a Brave's game but had not settled on a date.  As we were sitting around I half hardily ask her if she wanted to go to the Brave's afternoon 4:00 PM game and she said yes.

We got on the road around 12:30. We made a lunch stop about half way between Atlanta and the campground. While we were stopped for lunch I checked the weather on my phone using its WeatherBug App. It displayed a lot of rain tracking from the east towards Atlanta. We discussed the prospect of being at the game when the rain arrived and neither of us liked that possibility.

We checked the location of the nearest movie to us and found that we were within twenty miles of a Carmike 10 located in La Grange GA. Judy and I rationalized that we would rather be at a movie if and when the rain arrived. I quickly programed our GPS and we were off to the movies. La Grange is a smaller city approx. 25 miles north of the CG. I had to back track since we were already north of the city. It is named for the birth city of Lafayette of the American Revolutionary War fame.



Judy and I had not seen the latest Superman flick - Man of Steel so we went to see it. I am sure by now most readers of this blog have seen it. We both enjoyed the movie..

That is all for now. Thanks for stopping by. PS. I  did find and seal the leak.

  1. I love the Weatherbug App for that same reason. It's so nice to see where the radar shows the rain is, and then plan accordingly. I find we use the Android navigation more than the GPS, especially when we're looking for some type of store or restaurant. Isn't technology wonderful?
