Voting is a hard-won privilege

Today, I went to vote. I saw young people, some sporting piercings and tattoos, others wielding briefcases and braving high heels. I saw older Americans, many walking to stand in the voting line, stooped over and moving only with the aid of a cane.

Lunch was provided by Chick-fil-A Scenic Highway to businessmen, pastors and community leaders.

Gwinnett Medical Center Duluth celebrates 10 years

Perfume and personal space

Perfume. Eau de Parfum. Eau de Toilette. Eau de Cologne. These beautiful, fancy French words name types of scents or rather, they name the strengths of fine scents.

Pinckneyville Park home to secret treasure

Pinckneyville Park in Norcross is a fine example of the best that Gwinnett Parks have to offer. The 58-acre park offers baseball and softball fields, a pond, a walking trail, a dog park, a skate park with ramps, pavilions and a roller hockey/skating rink.
