Trailheads Trek Concrete Trail, Make Friends, And Fall In Love At New Lewis Barbecue.
Trailheads had our fourth annual holiday party at Brad’s pad, and everyone had a grand time. Our lovely mates somehow survived an evening of our hijinks, made worse when fueled by alcohol. Brad makes Manhattans that Patrick swears were Timothy Leary’s original recipe. Despite our recent legal squabbles and infighting, the room was filled with merriment, love, great food, and joy. We even made special Trailheads ornaments to adorn the tree. Charlie Brown got nothing on us—exce


Trailheads Go Back 400 Million Years, Argue About Directions, And Discover Dino Bones at Ford’s BBQ-Tucker.
With George on a film production in L.A., Steve doing businessy things, and Roy hanging up his hiking boots to practice guitar for his upcoming world tour with Nine Inch Nails, Trail Master Guy led Brad and Patrick on this week’s journey into the past. Our destination was Lithonia to explore granite gneiss– the stone of Arabia Mountain. What exactly is “gneiss?” Well, non-geology friends, keep reading.

Trailheads Mourn As They March, Revel In God’s Crayon Box, And Feast At Owens & Hull.

But the other Trailheads all showed up as Trail Master Guy led us on the Heritage Park Trail in Mableton. If you’ve never hiked this path, you simply must lace up and go. Mind your step, though, since


Roy Runs Out Of Believable Excuses, Trailheads Rally To March With Thousands, And In Nature, Then We Engorge Ourselves At City Barbecue.
We witnessed a miracle this week as Roy rose from his bed of frequent minor ailments and major excuses to join his friends for a hike. Joyous Steve dropped to his knees and cheered, “Hosannas” at the sight of the prodigal Trailhead’s return to the fold. George is still exploring the wilds of Oregon, hiking along with Carole and a couple of jokers named Lewis and Clark, who are so adept in the wilds they don’t even need the AllTrails app. “Is this the Oregon Trail?” George as
