Georgia Guidestones

So Sat. Bryan and I made our way out to Elberton. Him, Me, and our dog...She's spoiled.
Our Mission: to sleep next to the Georgia Guidestones. What the hell are the guidestones you ask? As our waitress put it...Some say there's a satanic controversy about them stones. Also she informed us she wouldn't camp up there come hell or highwater. God I love the south.

The Wikipedia article : Georgia Guidestones


Now for our wonderful photos, b/c I'm kind of tired (and busy at work) to really go into the history of the guidestones. But the cool thing about going up there was a gentleman who's hobby is astronomy...With a really cool telescope that you had to climb a small ladder to reach the view finder. So not only did I get to see the GuideStones of Granite, I saw the Moon, Juniper and it's four moons, Uranus, and oh there was another one I think or was that when we fell asleep and the guy packed up and went home. Oh well. It was neat beyond words I can really describe.
