Film (19 of 365)

The_Fabulous_Fox[2009]

This is the well-known marquee sign of Atlanta's Fox Theatre. While it only shows films a handful of times each year, the theater was originally an old movie palace. If you ever have a chance to see a film here DO IT, and make sure you sit in the balcony! They show a news reel, cartoon, along with the previews before the start of the film. We saw "Ironman" here during the summer and it was really neat.

I have never been to Atlanta (except the airport), that is marked down as a vacation destiny - love this image and would LOVE to go there!

I've never been either, but would love to check this out if I ever do! A little trip back in time so to speak...

Love the perspective and the history Oozes out of the photo, almost tempted to sell the grandkids and come.
