Lots of things I found out from my visit:
1. Apparently, pecans are just as common as peaches
A. It would appear so.
2. There are at least 3 traffic cops at every corner. Perhaps the stop lights, stop signs, and other traffic signs and signals aren't effective.
A. It depends upon where you are. I can drive 30 miles and never see a cop, other than GSP who are "commuting".
3. Google's GPS will route you around wherever you're trying to go, at least 3 times.
A. Waze does the same thing. It will route you around even minor "incidents" even if it only saves you a minute. Kind of annoying, really.
4. Atlanta is smaller than I had expected. I heard about highways with lots of lanes, but I think 7 was the most I saw.
A. Atlanta is plenty big for me. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if I never had to go into the city again. People talk about Birmingham's "rush hour". Nothing compared to Atlanta's.
5. The leaves haven't really started turning colors, yet.
A. We noticed, yesterday, that they are just starting to turn. We'll probably have a cold snap, and they'll just all fall of.
6. The no phone in your hand thing was different. I have no idea how you use an FRS radio, without holding it in your hand.
A. Two way radios are (I believe) exempt from the "no hands" thing.
7. The branches are shaved off of the trees on the sides of the highway.
A. Yeah. The tree "groomers" are pretty much barbarians, IMHO.
8. The entrance/exit lanes dump you on and off unexpectedly.
A. Yes. Yes they do.
I had no trouble finding the diner, which was in a nice area, as best as I could tell. For the food, well, maybe I should've ordered what Fierofool had.
Apparently, I'm short down there, too. My wife says that MikeMac towered over me. I didn't notice.
A. It's all relative. I'm about 5"10", and am pretty average.
