While Atlanta is the anchor and capital of Georgia, you can aim in any direction to find distinctly different regions – from the tail of the Appalachians in the North to the rolling Piedmont hills and on down to the seaside marshes in the East. Atlanta lays claim to the state’s number one attraction – Stone Mountain State Park. They say it best - “Serious fun. Endless adventure.” Just 15 minutes from downtown, the world’s largest exposed granite dome is surrounded by 3,200 acres of natural beauty and stimulating activities for every member of the family – sky rides and hiking paths, laser shows and pedal boats along Stone Mountain Lake. Golfers tee it up, while red foxes dash across the fairways in a state where the Masters Golf Tournament creates revered green-jacket memories every year. It’s a long downhill ride down to historic Savannah, a ‘stone’s throw’ from the Atlantic and a virtual step back in time to Southern architecture and stately squares. St. Simon’s and Jekyll Islands offer barrier island beauty and a wonderful combination of outdoor activities, historic sites and artistic culture. Originally the private winter playground of wealthy northeasterners, Jekyll Island stretches along 10 miles of coastal beaches and inland marshes. Cycling and walking paths wind under moss-laden oaks, and a tour of Millionaire Village takes you back to those Cornelius Vanderbilt and J.P. Morgan days. The kid-friendly Summer Waves Water Park adds man-made fun to natural water sport activities. Coastal golf courses and sophisticated St. Simon’s Island appeal to moms, dads and vacationing couples.

I have visited Atlanta many times now since 2011, and Blind Willie;s is the place I go to feel the healing power of the blues. The staff does and great job, and now that the venue is non-smoking, I can recommend this spot for all. If you have never experienced the blues, welcome to the party at this stellar location in Virginia Highlands. Drinks are reasonable, the Shadows are one of the best blues bands around, and there is food, tho I prefer to eat a bit earlier in the evening. Stay for all the sets, you will be glad you did. I enjoy the bourbon flight option myself

This bar, where female impersonators sometimes provide the entertainment, has increased in popularity in recent years.
I'm only 49% Gay, but I do enjoy a good drag show! Delicious, divine, and delectable Drag Queens...CHECK! Colorful, creative, cosmic, and crazy ambiance...CHECK! Sensational, stimulating, and PG-13 sexual show...CHECK! Fun, laughs, good times...CHECK! Greedy Queens...unfortunately, CHECK! Come for the ladies, entertainment, and reasonably priced drinks...and prepare to tip like cray cray. I've been drag shows all over the continent, but these Savannah Queens know how to get that cash. Each lady's performance is about 20% lip sync and dance, and the other 80% these beehotchs are just out collecting their $1s. I know a girl has gotta make her cash, but I prefer a more 50-50 ratio of performance and cash collecting. I think it was a $10 cover charge...will I back? Maybe...but I'm happy that conservative right wing Georgia has a little bit of LGBQT love.
