Ok, and this time I am...

Ok, and this time I am *really* not making this up. There are actually two residences on this old road which is at least a mile or two long. I passed here in the winter at which time you could actually recognize this as an abandoned two-story dwelling covered with dead vines. At least I hope it's abandoned. Now in the summer, it is completely grown over with Atlanta's green menace, kudzu. Could you imagine what lies beyond the door of this shack? I don't want to. I didn't waste any time here, as on the other side of the road is a house that looks like something out of "Deliverance." You know how some people have plaster lawn gnomes or flamingos or whatnot? Well this house had plaster lawn *slaves* - I am *not* making this up.

Irish/Celtic bar/restaurant on the Square

by dustmon about MacCracken's

Good Irish food right off the Marietta Square---been here many times and enjoyed the Alton Brown's Corned Beef and Cabbage, Shepherds Pie and Lamb Stew with a Guiness to go along---soda bread and garlic mash complete the meal for me! They also have a full Irish breakfast on weekends and lots of other goodies---definitely recommended for a good time and good food! Lamb Stew and a Guiness

"Best Suburb of Atlanta"

Marietta is not really a Go-To location. Atlanta is only a few miles away and we have lots of stuff to do for folk staying there, such as golf courses, Music venues, museums, parks and good restaurants. There are lots of different neighborhoods with a very diverse mix of people from all walks of life living here.
