Sounds like that one had location.
In North Georgia it seems like everywhere I've lived has had explosive growth and anyone with acreage could become rich overnight. Have always consoled myself with the thought that I would have probably sold right before the huge increase in price and would really be kickin myself for that! We have come out alright with the sale of our homes, just needing a place to live has turned out to be a good investment.

"Sounds like that one had location."

At the time, it was a beautiful area, but of course now is a bit tired, and the farther outlying homes are the posh ones now.

Speaking of 'location,' though, one late afternoon a tornado swept past, just one block west of us. It had the terrible and often described "freight train sound," proceeding on the several blocks to the (then) center of the main avenue, with a park on one side - and the house on the opposite side of that was devastated.

The one person killed in it happened to be a classmate and friend of my then 10-year old daughter.
