The CK Daily – Georgia’s 7 Wonders
Good Morning & Happy Tuesday! I’m taking a little time off this week to go on a bit of a unique adventure! I’ll be traveling across the state of Georgia in a camper van for the next few days to check out the “7 Natural Wonders” of Georgia!
I actually didn’t know that Georgia had 7 natural wonders until recently, but upon learning this information, I felt compelled to see them all. I mentioned it to a friend who felt the same, and the next thing you know we had a camper van lined up and had decided to make a mission out of seeing all of them in just a few days!
This trip will definitely be taxing as I think we’re in for somewhere around 15 hours of driving in total. We’ll start the trip down in South Georgia at the Okefenokee Swamp and finish in north Georgia checking out Amicalola Falls & Tallulah Gorge! We’ll be staying at Georgia State parks along the way to catch a little rest in between visiting the different locations!
In case you’re interested in what the 7 wonders are, here’s a list!
- Okefenokee Swamp
- Radium Springs
- Providence Canyon
- Warm Springs
- Stone Mountain
- Amicalola Falls
- Tallulah Gorge
Have you been to any of these? I’d love to know which ones are your favorites!

Learning Center Article – Wiring Ethernet Patch Panels
When you’re building a network, it’s often ideal to use a patch panel to direct cables and organize long Ethernet runs — especially if they go through walls, floors, and/or ceilings. Patch panels make cable management and network organization very easy over long periods of time, but you’ll need to wire the panels in order to put them into your network.
Not to worry, this guide will walk you through the whole process.
Today’s News to Start Your Day:
- Monday marked the end of the second Elizabethan age. After 10 days of very public official mourning was capped by a majestic farewell for Britain’s longest-serving monarch, the coffin bearing Queen Elizabeth II’s body was lowered into the royal vault Monday after a ceremony at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle.
- The ever-larger lens array may not be the only bumpy thing about the iPhone 14 Pro Max’s camera. Some users are reporting that the phone is making grinding noises and vibrating when they try to take photos with third-party apps like Snapchat and TikTok, severely distorting the camera images and, in some cases, damaging the camera’s hardware.
- According to a new paper published Monday in the journal PNAS, the international team of scientists suggests there are a whopping 20 quadrillion ants roaming our planet right now. That’s 20,000,000,000,000,000 of those six-legged worker insects you catch pollinating plants, dispersing seeds like little gardeners and salivating at the aftermath of a toasted bagel.
- Peloton is launching a line of rowing machines, with pricing starting at $3,195. The Peloton Row machines are now available for pre-order, and the company expects to start delivering the machines by December.
