It's MLK Day, and I have the day off! If you do too, join me for a walk in the city from the Carter Center to the King Center.

We will park and meet at the Carter Center by the circular drive with all the state flags.

We'll explore the grounds of the Carter Center, and then make our way to The Bridge (John Lewis tribute)

We'll hop on the Beltline and the Stone Mountain Trail to make our way to the King Center and his birth home.
