The 'neon' series chronicles furlough #1 not as it was, but how it felt. Start with 'neon : peachtree street' and read forward. Those of you with a literal bent might want to couple those entries with the twitterlog for the trip, which starts with this entry from Friday. it is so incredibly easy to allow the ability to log 140-character real-time notes about a trip to substitute for an actual travelogue; consider the 'neon' entries my belated, thoughtful apology.
