I will be heading to Atlanta, GA tomorrow for a week....Training seminar for work. :-)
Anyway, I was wondering if there were any Atlanta, GA people on the board. If so what are some fun or "can't miss" places I should visit weather it be restaurant, tourist attraction, or even just a short drive. What'cha suggest? [Reply]

Will be in Sandy Springs, Perimeter, Dunwoody area.
Any suggestions appreciated.
-business hotel
- 2 nice restaurants
- cigar lounge

- roughly the time to travel to airport
Thanks in advance
The traffic still sucks. Actually if there's something beyond suck, it does that. We go down for Braves games occasionally because the wife is a fan. Drove from the area around Truist (then Sun Trust) Park to Stone Mountain. What should have been an hour round trip drive was a three-plus hour bumper-to-bumper nightmare, and that was on a Saturday with no construction or accidents that I saw. It was horrible. I can't even imagine how bad it must be during weekday rush hour. I'll never drive there again.

I still use MARTA because of the traffic if visiting. Pretty fast to airport as well. [Reply]
