It’s actually one degree farther west than Detroit.

while you suckers have to deal with the sun setting at 4pm in the winter; I still get to see the sun and blue skies when I leave the office.

One of the more underrated perks of living here.

Yeah, you get to take it all in while sitting in bumper to bumper traffic trying to get around on 285 .....lucky you ....lol

You live in the Confederacy and you're calling us suckers?

I live OTP, man. Never have to touch 285. I go down Peachtree to Ponce de Leon and I’m home. Great commute.

I understand. I've got family in Snellville.

That's awesome. Visited Atlanta in October after a long hiatus (went to college there) and a friend brought me to the Pour Taproom next door to watch some early NBA games (Atlanta United was playing, too, and I was floored by the support they received).

My friend raved about the Nina and Rafi pies so we got one. Delicious.

The downside is that it gets lighter later in the morning. That is something I noticed whenever I traveled to Atlanta from Connecticut. One thing I miss about Connecticut in late spring and summer is that the sun rises just after 5 while further south it is closer to 6:30AM.

when I go to western Michigan ( right on lake, 90 miles nw of Grand Rapids still eastern time zone though) It’s dark at 8 am. It feels weird.

You'd think it's close but then you look at a map and realize how big the southeast is compared to the northeast. It's about 650 miles from Atlanta to DC. About 450 miles to Cincinnati. About 325 to Gainseville, Florida.

I can drive from DC to Atlanta in ten hours. But I drive VERY fast and make one stop at the most for ten minutes tops.

woof you make it through VA without a ticket? The whole state is speed trap.

Not only a speed trap but unless you are driving DC to Richmond on 95 between the hours of 2-4 am it’s a parking lot

To compare Gainsville to this area it's 334 miles from Hartford to Rochester NY (interstate hwy. all the way) or about 5 hours for comparison. Buffalo about another hour from there. So if you drive you will probably staying overnight or maybe team drive.

Don't you mean ITP? I live in Edgewood, inside Atlanta, and work from home. I never go outside the Perimeter unless I have to get a haircut. Unfortunately my barber works in Alpharetta. It is totally different world outside the OTP for me and rather stay in town because of this. I wouldn't move back to Connecticut because of the cold weather and no real city there but I do miss not going to UCONN games more regularly. I did go to the Charleston Classic and USF game last year.
