Atlanta summer in the city



An outdoor adventurer in Atlanta can find plenty to do without ever leaving the city, (which happens to be one of the most forested towns in the country). Athletes certainly will have no trouble finding places to run, swing a racket or club, or swim. Climbers can find walls, both natural and man-made; hikers and bikers can find trails, and canoeists and kayakers will discover water into which to dip a paddle. For example,


Atlanta's Piedmont Park, between 10th and 14th streets in midtown,
has a children's playground, tennis courts, swimming pool, bike paths,
and places for running and rollerskating.Grant Park, at Cherokee Ave. SE, offers many casual opportunities to jog, bike and skate. It is also home to Zoo Atlanta, one of the ten oldest zoos in continuous operation in the United States.


ATLANTA, Ga. -- Thousands of girls in Metro Atlanta and across the rest of the South are dreaming of stardom. They're auditioning for the lead role of the 14 year old in the next Coen Brothers film, a re-make of "True Grit" 40 years after the original version.
