thanks all...just got back and boy, was it STEAMY!! There was a 30 degree difference on the same day from the time I left there til I got back to Maine...had fun, checked out a few of the shops (nice place in Jonesboro -just outside of Atlanta) and ate lots of greens and beans...and chicken of course! ...also cornbread, biscuits, banana puddin', peach ice cream, just rolled off the plane at this end...thanks for all the suggestions..
