ATLANTA– About two dozen fourth-graders like Makayla Bramlett woke at the early hour of 6 a.m. to skip school in Macon and tour a building that is, well, better than a social studies class.
“It’s not like anything in Macon,” said Bramlett, after she and her fellow Tattnall Square Academy students squeezed through crowds and into schedules for a tour of the state Capitol building in Atlanta — and photos with the House speaker and Gov. Nathan Deal.
It didn’t look like what Marla Castro-Poveda expected under the shiny Gold Dome that she saw from the freeway Thursday morning. “I liked seeing Miss Georgia (Teen) and Governor Deal,” she said.
Indeed, Noelle Hughley, the beauty queen in question, happened to be gliding around the building too, along with some other crowned heads, the subjects of honorary resolutions.
