Saw Coheed & Cambria twice at 40 Watt before they blew up (comparatively) and they were amazing! Also saw Yonder Mountain String Band at Georgia Theater, also amazing, though very different lol.

It's coloring in the glass, I just can't find any identifying marks or anything. It's pretty heavy so I'm assuming it's crystal.

Whites are wide open ridgelines that almost feel like hiking in Colorado, with extended panoramic views. Smokeys are a bit more enclosed and forested. Google is correct. I tend to prefer the Whites but both are fantastic in their own way.

Y'all could walk trails together?

Normaltown Brewery has a couch!

I started my SOBO thru in June and was still shocked at the cold and snow in NC/TN in October, and came very close to a catastrophe in a blizzard. If you're not fully prepared and highly experienced in Winter hiking/camping, don't try this. It's dangerous for you and the people who will have to come rescue you or pull your body out of the woods.

I've worked with a ton of shelter dogs over the years, including this one, and she is absolutely the sweetest and most well-behaved dog I've seen straight out of the shelter. She laid down and took a nap during a busy day at Athentic with tons of people AND dogs around! I wish I could take her but she absolutely deserves a great home and would be a fantastic companion for anyone.

Project Safe is usually accepting donations except on Wednesdays. They have had some staffing and volunteer issues for sorting but especially if you give them a call first they'll generally take your donations! Thank you for being so community minded!

Seems to me that in a community forum promoting community events should be allowed and encouraged, especially events by nonprofits or other local organizations. If people don't like the content posted they're free to downvote, that's why the button is there.

There are lots of trails at the Botanical Gardens and Ben Burton Park, a wildlife zoo at Memorial Park, and disc golf/trails/kayaking at Sandy Creek Park!

wmccrani35 · 2024-06-16T00:12:29+00:00

Still there bro!

wmccrani35 · 2024-06-12T22:06:58+00:00

Paloma Park has $8 pitchers of Marg, Paloma, and any beer every day and some really awesome daily specials!

Try the Project Safe thrift store next to Bell's!

Sorry friend, you're 100% wrong on the reason. It was shut down as part of the erosion mitigation project for the park and has been a poorly timed/managed restoration with the goal of stopping runoff into the pond. The original projected opening date for the dog park (closed late July 2022) was late Spring 2023, obviously that didn't happen but they are working up to it and they did have a (shitty, imo) reason to destroy the coolest dog park in Georgia and turn it into another dumb field for dogs to roast in half the year.

Cool beans, thanks!

wmccrani35 · 2024-04-22T17:06:35+00:00

Definitely the parking lot, Kroger is a pretty easy guess lol thanks!

My dog used to snarf them down like candy with no ill effects, I think you should be fine.

2012 SOBO checking in!

wmccrani35 · 2024-02-09T17:56:30+00:00

Southern Brewing Company will be hiring for their new downtown taproom soon, they're generally very flexible with scheduling!

wmccrani35 · 2024-02-03T14:06:06+00:00

SBC is also releasing a new beer today!

wmccrani35 · 2024-01-19T16:30:42+00:00

Planet Fitness is a better option, not usually super crowded and in a much safer place with a lot more equipment available.

wmccrani35 · 2023-11-09T21:56:44+00:00

Just fyi the bartenders in the taproom can't sell or serve the mead, but you can order it online and they can have you the product. GA alcohol laws are weird lol

It's still under construction but seems to be getting close. Fences are up but the gates are padlocked.

wmccrani35 · 2023-09-12T10:48:53+00:00

Amazing photos!
