What I said was “Whew!”
That's right. I said “Whew”. The reason I said it was because
I had returned from a trip I took with a family member over the July 4th
Holiday. It had been a while since I had been out of town, so I did not
remember how much went into traveling. I packed and packed it seemed like. We
got under way the morning of the fifth. We got to Atlanta and did the perimeter
freeway and got on I-75 toward Chattanooga, then onto I-575 which became
Highway 515. All smooth. A little while and a milk shake later, we reached our
destination, Ellijay, Georgia. We were in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains.
We were a little early for check-in so we headed downtown. I was pleasantly
surprised that the first historic building I noticed was the old Ellijay Depot.
It was well maintained and is now a gift shop. The architectural style is very
attractive and the nearby scenery is as well. I am sure that back in the day,
the old depot welcomed visitors to the Chattahoochee National Forest area which
is why we were there as well. You should check it all out some time. Yours back
at work, omscaler
