I use to live out there. So I am familiar with the traffic. But the nice thing is, I know a ton of back roads, so I can get around fairly easy. Just gonna take some time trying to remember everything.

He was probably talking about the snow storm that just shut atl down with thousands of people stranded.

Coming from Detroit it's pathetic how this was handled. Rant end.

Somebody grab a shovel and start clearing roads. I'm supposed to move Friday and am stuck at the GA/SC line. My company has a mandatory shutdown for north GA.

Being from Michigan and I just cleared 3 foot snow drifts I found the Georgia situation unbelievable! My sympathies to all you suffering folks. My disdain for the government agencies and lack of preparation!

A guy driving an 18 wheeler from Detroit jacknifed across 285 at 85 and caused all the back up..........;)

Actually this happens about once every 10 years of so.....If a heavy snowfall comes during working hours.

What happend is everyone got off work and ran for home about the same time...and all roads were just crowded as hell. It was very drivable, but in the long, long wait in traffic, folks ran out of gas and start parking on the side of the expressway and the middle of the expressway and so on.......you get the picture.

The jacknifed Tractor trailer sure didnt help any.:p:D

Gainesville has finally gotten a real vape shop. The 'Vape Lounge' at 1310 Dawsonville Hwy has just opened. Grand opening will be Super bowl Sunday. I stopped by today to check it out and meet the owner, Russell, nice guy. Great location (for me) on Dawsonville Hwy across from Olive Garden, Buffalo Wild Wings and Cheddars. Pretty good inventory and carrying some of my favorites (SVD's, VTR, MVP, Evods etc.). Nice selection of juices to sample at the juice bar, and he plans to expand his selections quickly, as well as the nic. options for each flavor.

Is this on 53 ? Down the road from Gainsville Marina ?

Yes, it's on HWY 53 about 3/4 mile from the Marina toward Gainesville (E) on left across from church (don't remember the name) just before Cheddars, Olive Garden, Wing Place which are on right. He's going to have a big grand opening this Sunday.

Being from Utah, snow doesn't bother me.

I'm just glad that I will be going to a place where there actually is a vaping community. Utah doesn't really have one.

Did you have to leave some of your wives behind....:D ( sorry, everytime I see Utah I think about that).....:blink:

When was the last time you was here now days that back road you use to use is now a sub-division that you will get lost in
