In October, I took my first trip (that I can remember) to Atlanta to visit a close friend from home. One of our first stops upon my arrival was the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Park. I am ashamed to say, I had no idea the magnitude of the site — it spans several blocks and includes MLK Jr.’s childhood home and church, and an interactive visitor center — I was in awe. I encourage everyone to visit this pristine historical site; when I make it back to Atlanta, I plan to spend at least one full day taking in everything there is to learn and experience.
