Street scenes No. 11
Billy Howard writes: Here’s a street scene that’s really about streets, or lanes, as the case may be. There is an intersection in Atlanta of Merry Lane and Christmas Lane. All the more interesting when one of the most prominent members of the community is an Orthodox Jewish synagogue. Shalom, y’all.
Bootsie Lucas writes: While on our daily walk around our intown Atlanta neighborhood, my husband and I spied a hole about the size of a bathtub in the front yard of some apartments on North Highland Avenue. “Whatcha making there?” we asked a man working in the yard. “Well, ya know, we thought maybe we needed an outdoor toilet…,” he replied.
And one from me: Delta flight attendant inviting another to join a club for flight attendants in Glynn County, Ga., where the county seat is Brunswick: “We call ourselves the Brunswick Stews.”
