Here's some video from the same day. A little jitter, certainly not my best video production, but gives folks an idea of what this area is like.

Love that area
I'm spoiled that my sister has a place in Blue Ridge, GA
The riding all around that area is great
Trying to arrange an October fall leaves trip
Us FLA Folks don't get a change of season down here

Been to Blue Ridge numerous times. Less than 60 miles from my house. Tons of leaf-peepers up there in October. We've got Octoberfest going on in Helen now, Dawsonville has its Apple Festival soon, and plenty of places have the corn mazes going and pumpkin patches where you pick your own. LOL

I know I was most shocked seeing trees that weren't just pines when I first got up here. Just had my 1-year anniversary since moving out of Florida.

I know Dale mentioned that it would be next year for him. You are Barb are welcome anytime.

I know I'll see Sefferdog one of these days up here, and I'm sure I'll see others. I trust that everyone knows there's an open invitation.

Very little coordination needed from my end, and heck, while I'm still job hunting, I've got nothing but time right now, so mid-week works too. LOL

I'm ready to be up there again. I still own a house near there. It's about a 2 hour drive (not a lot of miles) from my house to Dahlonega. Watching that video reminds me so much of home. How did you get those maps on here? I was trying, but it didn't work.
