Default How is the corvette scene in GA?

We're thinking about moving and looking at somewhere in the Southeast to relocate the businesses. How is the weather and corvette scene down in GA? Any good or bad spots to avoid?

I'm curious too, July 2nd I'll be at Ft. Benning, GA for a good while, followed by some time at Ft. Stewart, GA. I know Roebling Road is out at Savannah, any other cool 'vette action going on?

The Atlanta area has the Peach State Posse group that is very active.

We lived in Columbus, GA for two years. Typical Southeast weather. Hot & Humid with afternoon thunderstorms possible from Spring thru Summer.

I'm in SE GA, near the coast just north of Fernandina Beach FL. It is just starting to get hot here. Heat & humidity mentioned above is very true. The best weather is in Spring and Fall, but we also have spells of really nice weather in Winter as well.

Most of the action is in Atlanta, but you get what comes with it esp traffic. Some will say go to FL as there is no state income tax. You'll have to ask the many Floridians who move to our small town every year.

You'll also have to look at your business plans and scope out the competition. GA is business friendly.
