We’re just a few miles north of Helen. Was born in Atlanta and we lived out near Six Flags but I kinda halfway grew up here-my mother was born on a farm north of Young Harris and we were up here like every other weekend and I spent most of every summer on the farm. Most all the towns around here were just barely wide spots in the road back in the 60’s and 70’s but not any more!

I guess Miami was once much the same but now? Check this out:

It’s a bit long but a fascinating view from the rear tug boat guiding a ship thru downtown Miami at night.

I just hope all that new construction is better built than that 45 year old condo...

We were just there Thanksgiving weekend last year, and rented the WORST cabin I've ever stayed in. Yeah, I'm going here: Alpine Mountain Cabins on 75A. The furniture smelled, the bed was a single, not a queen, the hot tub wasn't, the pillows were so flat I had to use a bundle of clothes for my head, and the heater wouldn't adjust - we had to open the windows so it wasn't 90 degrees inside. Our prior cabin was at Cabin On The Creek near Yonah. The road to the cabin was little more than a one lane fire trail, but it was nice inside. Plus, they had catch and release trout fishing right off the back deck. Sweet. My wife was born in Atlanta. Remember that scene in Smokey and The Bandit, when the Bandit went to see Cletus at home to enlist him in the beer run? That house used to be owned by a daycare worker, and that's where my wife spent her days as a tot when her mother went to work at Grady Hospital.
