We're spending a week with friends in North Georgia and we invited them to take the following week with us. We're looking for ideas for a location within driving distance. It could be mountains, beach, or something historical. The timeframe will be mid August.

Any ideas?

Myrtle Beach - many resorts, but make reservation now.

My first thought was Gatlinburg TN area. Or Nashville perhaps if the folks are country music fans.

Oh, DANG ... just head over on the interstate to New Orleans.

That city is SO FUN ... after a quiet week in North Georgia, you might need a week of those hurricane drinks PLUS some GREAT SEAFOOD and FRENCH cooking.

Grits or beignets ... BEIGNETS win every time.

Beer or Hurricanes ... Hurricanes win every time.

BBQ or NOLA French .... NOLA anything wins every time.

Banjo picking or Jazz ..... Jazz every time.

Moonshine or Hurricanes .... you won't go blind with a Hurricane.

Asheville, NC to see the Biltmore House and enjoy the great downtown area of Asheville, and maybe the nearby quaint town of Black Mountain.

I also like the Gatlinburg,TN idea-----tons of fun, and can be really cheap to stay and also dine out. Lots of deals there.

Georgia Vacation Spots?

Helen, Ga. and Cleveland, Ga. both are good places to go to. You may want to look these places up. Helen is modeled after a Bavarian Towne pretty nice and touristy. Cleveland is where they make Cabbage Patch dolls they have tours there if interested. Like I said both are great locations in North Georgia. Tybrisa TS is on Tybee Island just outside Savannah with much available in the area. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Big Canoe is in N. Ga. We did an extended family trip there one summer and really liked it. Hilton Head would be about a 4-5 hr drive and is a popular spot for those in the Atlanta area.

What is your driving radius (hours or miles)? Four hours would equal 200 miles driving range.

I could quote you all - so many Great ideas but I just thought about it, athough we're winter vacationers NOLA is one of those places we always wanted to go. That's it!
