    I arrived at Hotfoots in a place called Marietta, Georgia in a crushed Priority box. I was Cold, Butt Naked and Headless.


    It wasn't long before I had some pants to wear.


    The next day we took off for downtown Atlanta. The first sight was an early morning shot of me and the gold covered Dome on the Georgia Capitol building.


    Much to my surprise I was told we were going on a road trip!


    While jamming to Deep Purple's Highway Star Hotfoot decided I could try driving!


    I had trouble reaching the pedals and besides I couldn't see a thing! I decided it was best to let Hotfoot drive.

    We made a couple of quick stops and found some interesting Museums. Both were closed and we decided to try to get back another day.



    Dubble Bubble was bought by Tootsie Roll from 3 owners. One was Bruce Weiner who used his money to open The Bruce Weiner Microcar Museum at his place named Dubble Bubble Acres just outside Madison Georgia.



    Have to make time to go back and check it out!

    Also found this Museum in Harlem Georgia. LH Harlem



    Turns out Oliver Hardy was born in Georgia.



    Have to go back and check it out someday too!

    Hotfoot was in a hurry and we covered 400 miles. Did not have time to stop as had to get back to Marietta and go to His Daughters Ballet Recital.



    Thats Sarah holding me and making a head for me! (holding her fingers in a circle)



    Being Shirtless and Headless I was not allowed to go to the Church so I stayed home and went to bed!

    Today I accompanied Hotfoot to his office in Downtown Atlanta. On the walk in we saw the COKE sign.

    It was a little cold without a shirt on. 58 Degrees in mid May is cold for Atlanta.

    we also passed by Underground Atlanta



    Here I am at Hotfoot's Desk!


    This is the view Hotfoot had when he was on the 40th floor in the corner cube.

    Now he works on the 5th floor in a cave. (room with no windows)

    At lunch we ran out to CNN Center and Centennial Olympic Park.

    This is a view of CNN Center from across Centennial Olympic Park.

    A tribute to the Olympic Spirit.


    Thats the Georgia Aquarium in the background.

    Watched some of the water show at the Olympic Ring Fountain.

    Hotfoot had a couple of Gay guys proposition him while he was photographing me. Probably not the best place for a male to photograph a half naked male doll!

    A quick stop at The World of Coca-Cola - Atlanta, GA and I got my picture taken next to John Pemberton who originally developed Coca Cola. Atlanta is the home to COKE!


    A quick stop at CNN center and I considered becoming a news anchor.


    Checked out the Cartoon Network Store.


    And wanted to take the CNN Hummer (used in the Iraq war) for a ride.


    Hotfoot had to get back to the office to do some work so I took a nap!

    Seeing all the sights is tiring and difficult without a head!

    While digging around in Hotfoot's junk box at home I found a few heads to try on. Might make exploring a little more enjoyable if I could see.



    I like this one the best!
