Pictures taken while at work

Author: Gene Callan

On February 27th, 2014 I was let go from my job at The Rome News Tribune due to a "lack of work."(It probably won't be long until newspapers are a thing of the past.) I was a bill collector for the paper. My travels took me to Rome, Cedartown, Rockmart, Kingston, Plainville, Adairsville, Cartersville, Emerson, White, and Rydal in Georgia. There are also some pics from Collinsville, Alabama. Thar's the only place I went to in Alabama that had railroad tracks. I hope you enjoy the pictures!
