There wasn’t much on t.v. over the holidays. Christmas Eve, I watched all of “It’s a Wonderful Life,” one of my favorite movies, but one I rarely watch from start to end, and sadder still, I watched two reruns of the National Spelling Bee on Christmas night. In addition, over the holidays, I caught up on some of my dvr-ed (sp?) shows, including multiple episodes of the Civil War Journal. (I have a History Channel problem.) One of them was about Sherman’s March and had some interesting photographs of Atlanta, c. 1860’s. Curious, I went online to see if I could find any more – seems that The Atlanta History Center has a collection of them, but it is not online.

In the course of my search, though, I came across another interesting site: The New Georgia Encyclopedia. Pretty interesting stuff on Atlanta and the entire state of Georgia. Also a great way to waste some time, especially if you don’t have much work to do at your office because everyone else took the week between Christmas and New Year’s off.
