Up, up, and away! The trip from Iowa is complete and I have landed in Atlanta!
I was welcomed to the South by the Alpha Delta Pi staff and six of my new roommates! We started our first day off with a greeting from the Alpha Delta Pi International President Ms. Tammie Pinkston.
We learned about our new home, the jobs to come on a tour. For those of you who do not know, eight of us are making our new home in Alpha Delta Pi Memorial Headquarters.

After our tour, we headed to Stone Mountain. For those who don't know (like me until I got there!) Stone Mountain is a giant rock.
It is a quartz rock "mountain" located in Stone Mountain, GA. The summit of the mountain is 1,686 feet. The walk up is about a mile, but a mile worth of rocks to climb. I was really wishing I had packed some tennis shoes, sperry's are not intended for rock climbing :) It was a hike for sure, but the long trip up was well worth it when we reached the view at the top. You can see the Atlanta Skyline in the distance, and the tiny towns below. As any Alpha Delta Pi would know, any adventure is not complete without a diamond picture. |
It was an adventure for sure, and hopefully that means more adventure's to come! Our first day of work is Monday, so hopefully we can get a few more sites in this weekend!
Sending love from Atlanta!
