Loran Smith: Let’s clean up our cities and bring kids to the banks of the Chattahoochee

The North Georgia mountains offer a rich experience anytime you travel to the upper part of our state, but especially in the fall. The gold in “them thar hills” today is the sheer beauty of the landscape and the hospitality of the people.

With Georgia enjoying an open date in football, the timing was propitious to take an overnight trek to visit friends, Jimmy and Kathy Harris who live by the Chattahoochee in Cornelia.

Jimmy is a native of Jones County in the middle part of our state and Kathy is a transplanted Texan. She stays connected to her Texas roots, however, often sojourning back to the land of the longhorns to visit relatives.
