Cobb County Courthouse and Blackjack Mountain

These were taken yesterday from the 7P parking deck level at the Witcher Street Building, part of the Kennestone Hospital complex in Marietta.

The courthouse is probably almost a mile away and Blackjack Mountain is over two miles away.  

On the mountain ridge see the rise on the right the little light spot?  The little light spot is a huge water tank.  Around the tank and the little dead dirt roads near it at the time, now mostly apartments  and subdivisions in the 1950s and 60s was well known as a "parking" area... if you get my drift... like a "cheap date"... get it?

If you didn't yet get it let me put it this way:  If a Marietta native in their 50s was very good at tracing their roots they might find out they were conceived on top of that mountain.
