I bet you could have stayed there for a week, at least! Touring Atlanta sounds wonderful -- it seems to be the best way to visit Atlanta if you don't live there!

I do know it was in their large Atlanta home. The interesting thing is the exterior of the home was "photoshopped" or whatever process they used in 1938 on top of the exterior of Selnick studios which was used as a stand in because they didn't have a house they wanted. Another little fun fact. GWTW is my all time favorite movie and Vivienne is my favorite actress.Cat Shivelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02150006387807216135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5288732393699331930.post-71241896956391621022014-10-04T16:20:52.872-07:002014-10-04T16:20:52.872-07:00Hi, Brian!

The main point of the trip was to watch the Thunder play the Hawks and we had front row seats to the game. Great weekend and I do hope I can go back to Atlanta during the summer next time. <br />PagePagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15063277863578004836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5288732393699331930.post-3657959267201874312014-10-03T03:44:21.335-07:002014-10-03T03:44:21.335-07:00Wow!

Really interesting that Ted Turner acquired the film portrait then donated it.<br />I hope you'll return and check out my other posts.

I was really excited for Kendra and then when the museum staff were so excited about her book I was even happier for her. It certainly deserves a spot up front in the gift shop.<br />Thanks for stopping by. I really was tickled to get to visit the museum and hopefully one day you'll get to visit as well. : )<br />All the best!<br />PagePagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15063277863578004836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5288732393699331930.post-65293777084547414082014-08-09T19:02:07.174-07:002014-08-09T19:02:07.174-07:00I believe the portrait originally hung in the bedr...I believe the portrait originally hung in the bedroom in the Butler's mansion in Atlanta.

I was watching Identity Thief again late last night after work and they showed the interiors the lobby of The Georgian Terrace Hotel in the film but acted like they were in St. Louis at the time. I found it so bizarre to do that since the hotel is so recognizable but I also found it cool that I stayed there and recognized it. Movie fail! ha ha<br />Thanks so much for stopping by.<br />PagePagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15063277863578004836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5288732393699331930.post-54261559059214541502014-08-05T11:48:23.477-07:002014-08-05T11:48:23.477-07:00I'm not a GWTW fan but that certainly looks li...I'm not a GWTW fan but that certainly looks like a great treasure trove of history.Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376065182154885503noreply@blogger.com
