Yee haw. My December flight to Atlanta is booked (click here to read me moaning about the ever too early onslaught of festive season planning). Hopefully the trip will be the first of at least a few more holidays in America in the next year or so. I’ve got a lot of good reasons to visit New York, San Francisco, LA and plenty more stateside localities.
But first, Georgia. Mom, BBQ, grits, fried okra, bisquits and gravy, seedy pawn shops, driving around and getting lost on mountain roads, gawking at people in Wal-Mart … all the good stuff that goes with being in the South: I can’t wait. I’m hoping to make it down to Athens for at least a night and to spend a bit of time around Atlanta, but mostly I’m just looking forward to hanging out with my family and old friends in North Georgia and the area around Chattanooga, Tennessee.
So Georgians, you’ve been warned. I’ll be around the week of Christmas and will be keen to see plenty of peeps! Give a shout if you’ll be in the area. It’ll be good to catch up.
