Atlas Obscura.com is such a fun site! If you haven't checked it out, just click that link!

For this swap, we are going to find some points of interest near us and share the information we find with our partners.

Go to the website and click on "search the Atlas" and you can put in a city name or a zip code and you will get a map with a list of places of note. You don't have to visit these places to do the swap, but if you are able to visit any of them, please share with your partner! :)
When I put in my zip code, one of the locations I got was Bob's Java Jive, which I've actually passed a few times in driving around. So I just might make that a priority! :)

Some of the locations will have lots and lots of details, history, photos, some will be brief. I'm not going to set a length requirement for this swap for that reason. Just take a look at the site, check out some of the locations online (at least) and share what you found with your partner. Some questions to consider:

Do you think you'd visit this location? Or have you already been?

Why did you decide to click on this location?

This can be a fun, inexpensive way to learn about your area and share with your partners. I'm hoping to make this a regular swap for the group for a while, so if you have any thoughts about the swap, please let me know! :)

Questions? Comments? please send me a PM!
