I lived in Georgia. We had terrible ice storms all 5 years I was there. Sure winter didn't last long, but the water shortages were really hard.
If I could live anywhere it would be Utah for the Mountains, Georgia for the people and flowers, Oregon for the year round green, Grand Mesa for the solitude, Colorado for the sports teams, Alaska for the advnture, Montana for the sky, Italy for the food, Korea for the prices, Germany for the stuff I like, and Holland - because my sister lives there. I better just grow where I'm planted. After 29 years here, I better just stay put. but I loved living in Georgia.
