MYSTERY PHOTO: Only one winner this edition; Now identify two mysteries

With a difficult mystery last week, this edition’s mystery photo may prove much easier. So, since it’s a little simpler, let’s throw two similar photos at you this week. Find the location and send your ideas of this mystery puzzle to elliott@brack.net, and include your hometown.

While the last Mystery Photo was difficult, only one reader solved the problem. Susan McBrayer of Sugar Hill wrote: “Finally found it! Who knew there were so many outdoor globe sculptures in the world? I’m so glad you narrowed it down to Gwinnett County. I usually give up after a half hour but since it was in Gwinnett County . . . . This outdoor globe sculpture is behind the Georgia Baptist Mission Board  (used to be the Georgia Baptist Convention) at 6340 Sugarloaf Parkway in Duluth across from Gas South Arena. The sculpture is unusual because the earth is not tilted and because the base is straight up and down. Here’s a view from the other side with a building in the background.”

Another view of the tough mystery.

The photo was made by George Graf of Palmyra, Va. on a recent trip to Gwinnett.

Third grade students in the Lilburn area have been given 1,300 dictionaries, through efforts of the Lilburn Woman’s Club. Monies funding the project came from a $2,000 grant from the Steve and Loree Potash Family Foundation of Cleveland, Ohio, and its “Believing in Reading” program. Walton EMC also contributed $500 for the project. Working with partners from the Mail and Package Center, Sweetwater Masonic Lodge No. 431 and the Lilburn Business Association, the Lilburn Woman’s Club was able to distribute the dictionaries. Among those club members working on the project were, from left, Karen Snavely, Kathy Mattox, Pat Shaver, Gloria Sill, Pat Otwell and Charleen Ray.
