Village Taqueria will celebrate a popular Mexican tradition, the Day of the Dead, with a night of culture, great food and special cocktails.
On November 2, Mexicans create an altar to honor the memory of loved ones who have died. It is believed that their souls return to visit their families. To greet them, the families prepare a special celebration that includes their favorite foods, flowers, toys and other symbolic offerings.
On that date, Village, with the Institute of Mexico and Jose Cuervo, will offer a range of cultural and entertainment activities highlighting the Mexican celebration.
No Mas will set up an altar to welcome guests, while an artist will paint skulls onto people’s faces, as guests both mourn and celebrate their deceased relatives. Vendors will offer items related to the tradition and Cuervo girls will offer special cocktails.
Also, there will be live mariachi music and lots of fun.

Are these the apartments that were once called "Garrison Plantation"?

This is Garrison Plantation - Garrison Lakes - Lakefront Vista. I lived there when it was family…Read More owned. It went from sister to brother then sold. Changed name from Garrison Plantation (because it wasn't PC) (but no one thought about what a garrison was) to Garrison Lakes (there's only one lake) to Lakefront Vista (under new ownership.) It's a dump now. The layout and size of the apts. are great. Even the location is great. Still know some people there. But it went downhill.

I'd rather answer the question "How do you feel about Roswell Street Baptist Church?" My…Read More answer: can't stand it.
This incident is just another in its long and bigoted history. During the anti gay lifestyle debacle it gave out copies of the 10 Commandments. That anti gay resolution drafted by Gordon Wysong and enacted by the Cobb Co. Commissioners cost the county an Olympic venue.
Whenever I hear about that church I think of the OM who called the church's prominent members The Marietta Mafia!

Its sad, that young people who are gay and often struggle to accept themselves as they are, face…Read More such fury and rejection by a church that preaches love, compassion and forgiveness for most but not all. No wonder many young people, the vast majority of whom are or will be heterosexual find the church increasingly irrelevant in their lives with attitudes like this.
