matts notes on georgia

So here are my general observations on our trip

  • downtown atlanta seems pretty cool
  • people drive the speed limit on the high ways. odd
  • every road seems to be a highway, at 65 mph. with stop signs and stop lights
  • the road names on the maps dont match the signs. makes directions hard to follow
  • people seem to operate and a relaxed pace. Kind of cool. Unless you are in a hurry
  • the highways are lined with trees. not houses and businesses like here in AZ
  • the toll road was fun. I’ve never had to toss the change in the bucket like that
  • My Weedwacker has more horsepower than our rental dodge caliber had
  • There seemed to be these really cool looking turbines in the ceilings of tunnels. Maybe for generating electricity off the wind caused by cars? I need to do more homework on them

Over all I liked atlanta. If it wasn’t so far away from our families, I could see us living there.
