Fall is Coming!


With Fall around the corner, Athens is bustling with tons of energy. As far as our local economy goes, this is the primo time for all of our merchants. The whole city benefits from UGA football. I do love football season in general, but Fall is really my favorite time of year no matter where I am. Weather has a lot to do with it, of course. And all of my favorite holidays are near, so even better.
Enough of my personal sentiments on Fall...back to Athens. It does truly feel like the whole city takes a deep breath in the spring with graduation and Twilight Criterium and AthFest and just let's it out in a slow sigh over six home games through the Fall and some cherished off weekends. Weddings run rampant, parents visit more often, holiday plans are made. Just a great time of year!
....And some beautiful weather to drive around and see some houses! (Had to get that in!)

Welcome Back, UGA!

Living in a college town has its ups and downs, but there is a tangible energy when students come back from the summer break.  It really revitalizes this place!  The hustle and bustle of folks moving in, shopping for books, trying out new restaurants, new professors and staff bringing in new families, joining community organizations, etc.  There are so many changes here every fall.  And I can truly only speak for myself, but I never grow tired of the turnover each August.  I think it keeps some of us "permanent" folks from getting stale!
