After graduating from the University of Georgia School of Forest Resources, my classmate Kenneth G. took a job with a timber company in South Carolina. In the heat and humidity of a southern summer, he spent months cruising timber in the bottomlands and swamps, fighting off ticks, chiggers, poisonous snakes, etc.
Later that year I saw him and asked, "Ken, how do you like the work?"
He replied, "Dan, Georgia is an oasis between South Carolina and Alabama."
See what I mean? Those Georgians don't even know about their very own Okefenokee!

The Okefenokee is partly in Florida. To us up here in the Ridge and Valley section of Georgia, that's awfully far away.
By the way, here's an oddity of geography that's always amazed me. From my home near Rome, Georgia, it's 780 miles to my mom's home in Miami. If I drove the same distance north, I'd be past Milwaukee!

BTW: I would even cheer for Darth Visor against Notre Dame...
The only game in which I will EVER cheer for Spurrious is against Darth Saban! LSU should have used him to feed the swamp lizards.

That's no oddity, Reb. You can spend the better part of a day getting to the Fla State Line from SoFla.. I used to have to drive from Emory to Lake Worth to check in with family and with my sponsoring congregation. That was a haul! I always used to make sure I took a whiz break in G'Ville. My family always thought that U of F ruined a pretty Florida town, and they lived in Alachua county before the U of F came to be!
