.speakeasy: athens, ga

While in Athens, we wandered into Speakeasy for a pre-dinner cocktail. 

Pale blue walls, tea light candles, and street lights streaming through the window created the dreamy atmosphere inside this quaint upstairs bar.

I have a soft spot for low lighting, so I left my martini for a few minutes to snap some photos of my lovely friends enjoying good conversation and rest from a long day of exploring. 

Here's what I saw:

Hope y'all had a wonderful weekend! Can you believe Thanksgiving is this week??

.an athens autumn

Last weekend some friends and I headed north for a long weekend in Athens, Georgia. It was a wonderful trip filled with cool weather, spontaneous adventures, fancy cuisine, and (a few) stiff drinks. 

Saturday afternoon we ventured over to the Georgia State Botanical Gardens, and I am convinced we couldn't have picked a better time of year to go if we tried. The color spectrum of the leaves were unlike any this Florida girl has ever seen- from lime green, to yellow, to bright orange, to deep red. 

Here's what I saw while wandering around beautiful Athens:

Happy Thursday, my friends!
