    My mom was born in Georgia. However, summer of ‘54 she came to state of Florida via UF and never looked back.

    He died on the operating table during/after his second valve replacement, so I would say it was directly related.

    North Georgia mountains are nice, especially right now with the fall leaves.

    I imagine everywhere. We have friends in SW GA with farmland and they can go shining on most any night and see a herd of 100

    I believe it's legal to take 10 does and 2 bucks up there

    Actually Publix has a pretty good pecan pie also.
    Just couldn't think of anything else I liked about Georgia. Never been to Savannah, Sea Island, etc. Not a fan of any of their sports teams, so....
    it's a drive thru state for me, faster the better.

    My mom has lived in GA for the past 20 years. I was just down there last week for a quick visit. Got in and out of ATL airport with no problems. Those are two nice things about GA.

    In 1991, a very good job/career led me to the Atlanta, GA. area. A few years later I logged on to Gator Country/Swamp Gas with my NorthGaGator user name.

    I sometimes refer to myself as a Gator in exile or a gator on a recon mission.

    There are many things to brag about this part of Georgia. Two things that come to mind are:
    1. The nearby fantastic State and National Parks (offers great hiking)
    2. Williams Brothers BBQ (great BBQ) restaurants.

    Damn, that sounds awesome. I see them crossing the road all the time where I am just north of Georgia, but, can sit out in the woods for days without seeing one. :(

    That's just crazy. I read about that a while back, and the wildlife biologists were unable to explain it.
