The Best Tourist: dome

I'm making a to-do list. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYrAcXHJxNDcAIjM3ma35uzvO9n4lzr3naa-q4JU_8KzuvV55vUeHr-K580zeX2zuO7a49pT_rGZdE_Qj9WuhxWT7b8dFT1nm4C5WCJiPN3ZUm0qcw7M9WX_ue-gUkrK5oEtSeedj8K6Id/s1600-h/Reid-Turquoise-Shutter-Fairview-Detail.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5444241249951849058" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYrAcXHJxNDcAIjM3ma35uzvO9n4lzr3naa-q4JU_8KzuvV55vUeHr-K580zeX2zuO7a49pT_rGZdE_Qj9WuhxWT7b8dFT1nm4C5WCJiPN3ZUm0qcw7M9WX_ue-gUkrK5oEtSeedj8K6Id/s400/Reid-Turquoise-Shutter-Fairview-Detail.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 283px; height: 400px;" /></a> Above is a Neel Reid house. one of my absolute faves. I wonder if he spec'ed the shutter colors. He died too young in 1926, aged 40. <a href="http://www.phoenixflies.org/" style="font-weight: bold;">Phoenix Flies</a> is "more than 160 events, from guided tours to lectures to open houses, at dozens of Atlanta's historic sites." It's ideal for architecture tourists in Atlanta. I got intimidated last year because there are so many events. Work and personal things interfered so I didn't do anything. Shame on me. Thanks to <a href="http://castrodesign.net/">Atlanta Architect </a><a href="http://castrodesign.net/">Rodolfo Castro from Castro Design Studio</a> for urging me to try again. He suggested: <blockquote>"I recommend you do the <a href="http://www.phoenixflies.org/event_details.php?id=77">Preservation Center's Neel Reid house tour in Druid Hills.</a> It is a great way to see some fantastic houses in a short amount of time." It's at 6:30 P.M. on Friday March 19, 2010. It's free but you have to <a href="http://www.phoenixflies.org/event_details.php?id=77">call for a reservation</a> and to find out where the tour starts. </blockquote>Here is a another Druid Hills Need Reid. It's for sale. Distinctive even in a neighborhood of distinctive houses. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/terrykearns/3179816091/" title="P1081651-Neel-Reid-Springdale-close by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="P1081651-Neel-Reid-Springdale-close" height="375" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3321/3179816091_74d6f4074e.jpg" width="500" /></a> But that's not all I want to do.

Want one more? A more elaborate house might catch my eye at first. You can't take in this corner unless you slow down. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/terrykearns/3254234880/" title="P2041885-Neel-Reid-PtreeC-Ansley-Entrance-Detail by clambake444, on Flickr"><img alt="P2041885-Neel-Reid-PtreeC-Ansley-Entrance-Detail" height="468" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3052/3254234880_d025ed7e17.jpg" width="500" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/terrykearns/3254234880/sizes/o/in/set-72157613278959308/">Click here to see a bigger picture</a>.
