I enjoy all four seasons in Georgia, but there’s something about fall that tops them all. Maybe it’s the cooler air, the colorful leaves or football games.
I knew fall was in the air this year when temperatures dropped and the smell of fresh food took over at the Taste of Atlanta. I had the pleasure [...]

I will never forget the devastation I witnessed while covering this years flooding. I met people who lost everything from their homes to their cars. It was not a pretty sight, but in the midst of such tragedy I came across one story that lifted my spirits.
Teenagers Kevin Broyles and Matt Palmer decided to rescue people [...]
Illegal Dumping

We all know that times are tough and budget cuts have hindered city services, but c’mon folks! Atlanta is becoming a dumping ground. If you drive around the city you will notice illegal dump sites everywhere. I’ve found them on North Grand Avenue, Hollywood Road, New Town Circle, Tucker Avenue, Macon Drive and Springside Drive. [...]
Lake Chatuge

It’s one of the most beautiful lakes in the Southeast and it’s only two hours from Atlanta. Lake Chatuge is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains just north of Helen in a city called Hiawassee. I spend a lot of my spare time up there boating, dining and relaxing. Trust me when I say it’s a special place, but understand [...]

I knew I was in for some good vibrations when the boss asked me to introduce the Beach Boys on a Friday night at the Fred Amphitheater in Peachtree City. The ‘Fred’ is a beautiful place to see a concert and you can get there by car or golf cart. Yeah Peachtree City is the golf cart capital of the [...]
Atlanta Braves 101

Win or Lose… there is something special about the Atlanta Braves. I’ve been a fan my entire life and just a couple of weeks ago the Braves contacted me about a one of a kind opportunity. They asked me to take part in their Baseball 101 clinic at Turner Field. It’s an annual event that benefits the [...]
Taste of the Nation

For the past six years, I have reported on hundreds of restaurants around metro Atlanta. I’ve featured some of the best and questioned some of the worst and I will continue to carry out that mission for years to come. However, I must say there is nothing greater than teaming up with local restaurant chef’s for a good [...]
Action Adam

A couple of months ago I told my boss that I wanted to spend more time working on news stories that make a difference in people’s lives. As a result, he nicknamed me ‘Action Adam’ and told me to go for it.
So I’ve spent the last few months helping over billed Atlanta water customers get their money back. [...]
Never Too Old To Boogie

There’s no doubt in my mind that you’re never too old to boogie! My grandfather-n-law Luke Taylor just turned 96 years old and he celebrated his birthday on the dance floor. It was a memorable moment for ‘Papa’ because I gathered with family and friends to surprise him on the Dance floor in Northeast Georgia.
I must say he’s a [...]
