Right outside of Atlanta is a beautiful park called the
Davidson-Arabia Mountain Nature Preserve. Within minutes one can go from
high-rises to this beautiful area of wetlands, pine and oak forests, and a
large mountain of exposed granite known as Arabia Mountain. I was there
recently with family and friends just after Christmas and was struck by how
strange and beautiful the mountain is. Except for a few small pools of water
it’s a pretty arid environment. In spite of this, you can find hardy but pretty
trees and shrubs as well as a plant with bright red leaves known as red
diamorpha. It’s also a wonderful place to watch the sun set over the hills and
city in the distance.
