Bank of America hosted a free admission weekend to museums all over the country this weekend, and one of the participating museums was Atlanta's own High Museum of Art. Since I have BoA and got in free, we decided to go. And, since we never usually venture out of the greater Cumming area, I couldn't let this trip pass without looking for a letterbox or two in a new and different place. So, after finding the Hula Hula Monkey, Alex and I headed down to Peachtree St. in Atlanta to see the car show at the High Museum of Art. For those of you who aren't familiar with Atlanta, you can get to pretty much anything via Peachtree St., including the Margaret Mitchell House, which is only six or seven blocks down from the High. We parked at the High (which I'm including a picture of because I got killer parking, for FREE) and walked the few blocks down in search of Margaret Mitchell's "Burning Passion."
Although this letterbox was not as difficult or complex as some of the others, it was very exciting for both of us. We loved the thought of how a letterbox could be hidden right in the heart of the city, under a bush that thousands of people pass by each day. It really shows the neat, connecting aspect of letterboxing that I love! The picture on the left is the actual "Margaret Mitchell House", and the right is the corner of Crescent Ave and Peachtree Place where the box was hidden.
