I was born in Savannah, GA and do remember living on the beach. But was small when dad was transfered to Atlanta. About all I remember about the beach was wind and water far as I could see. I remember standing in the window watching a seagull flap his wings hard as he could but the wind was blowing him backwards through the air. And my mom grabbing me from the window saying something could hit me there.

Atlanta area traffic was so bad, dad bought a chunk of land in TN after looking very carefully for years. He said we were moving where there'd be no more traffic to deal with for a hundred years. He was pretty much right. Now when I leave my neck of the woods I feel lost if I don't see hills. Went to Dallas TX a couple times, stayed 3 months working a temp job back in the 80's and couldn't wait to get back to our hills. Oh, I damn near died when I came home that September. I know that in TX the temps read hot, but after 3 months there I almost melted here when I came back to TN in Sept. Humidity is much different here.

Right now my sister inlaw just returned from Gulf Shores AL and said our humid heat is killing her here after being down by the ocean. She said it was very pleasant feeling down there.
