Mary is right!!! Atlanta is just as hot as we get in SC. In fact, it will be 90 today, here! Can't imagine what Columbia, Atlanta and some of the other southern cities are getting, temperature wise!

I was thinking that if we met in Georgia, maybe we could head towards the mountains a bit. What about Helen, GA?? Not too far from Atlanta or SC, and much cooler, with those wonderful lazy river rides. I'm sure there are other places up there as well. I have a friend that owns a hotel there. If he can't put us all up, he can surely recommend something else.

I probably won't be bringing my dogs, regardless, only because it would limit what I could do outside of the hotel. Lilly would tear the door down if I left her in a hotel room, alone.

Helen and I would like to try DC too, especially in the fall. Obviously, her schedule dictates mine, so we'll have to play that by ear, but I would certainly love to do both trips, although Georgia is a much easier trip for me. We would be glad to try and arrange to pick up at the airport if necessary to drive to wherever we decide to go. I'd go out of my way for a Pet Talker, anyday!!
