I leave early Thursday morning for a Gone with the Wind, Mommy-weekend away. I’m traveling to Atlanta and Marietta, GA to celebrate 70 years of GWTW, the epic film that starred my favorite actress Vivien Leigh. In anticipation of the event, I’ve been interviewing cast mates and writers on my other blog, ScarlettOHara.org. Oh, and I’ve been running contests, too, to generate buzz for this amazing event. I adore attending these events because it allows me to feel not-so-dorkish. I mean, I’ll be surrounded by other fans of the book, film, and actors so I can comfortably speak freely about my passion. It’s gonna be an action-packed weekend! Read about the Itinerary HERE. Nick & his parents kindly provided me with an early Christmas gift that will accompany me to Georgia– a new camera!! I’m covering the weekend for the Philadelphia Bulletin so it’s always best to have a backup camera in tow. 
It feels like Christmas!
Practicing with my early Christmas present
What type of camera is that? I’m looking to get something new before my trip. Let me know if you like it!
I like it!! Needs a differ lens though! It’s a Rebel Xsi.
