We had a good weekend in Georgia visiting our great friends from Arizona and California.  We visited the Coca-Cola Museum and were impressed with that area of Atlanta.  It seemed so clean and orderly there–maybe somewhat different than I remember when I lived there twenty years ago.  The drive there took us about seven hours each way.  It was funny that it did not feel particularly onerous.  The kids did some homeschool.  We talked.  I got a little more exercised than I should have in one discussion and felt seriously admonished about it when our friend told us about one of her friends who is very good at not taking responsibility for the actions of others.  The whole weekend was like that.  I came back home with the desire to dedicate myself to more humility and kindness.  Those qualities are good and right.  I just need more of them.

Note:  I found a VERY cool piece of free software:  Photo stitching with Hugin.
