The AJC has a nice write up today by HGTV host Erica Glasnener, who recently toured the gardens of Pandra and Michael Williams, which are featured on this year’s Decatur Garden Tour.  Pandra and Michael are big into native plants, so if you’ve been thinking about how to incorporate more of these into your own gardens, you might peruse the article.  Or even better, take the Garden Tour, and purchase a few of these native plants from the Williamses!

Its sort of a slow morning here in the Decatur Metro newsroom, so I’ve decided to throw out a question that popped into my head a couple days ago.

Most of us are aware of musicians Michael Stipe and Emily Saliers, along with humorist Roy Blunt Jr.’s Decatur-tie, while others know that poet and good friend to Edgar Allen Poe, Thomas Holley Chivers, is buried in Decatur Cemetery.  A few others might also be aware that Julia Roberts spent some time here as a child.

But all of those folks have either passed on or moved on to other places.  So who is Decatur’s most famous current resident?

I’ll start things off by throwing Ryan Gainey’s name out there.
