Of course we love The University of Georgia, her students and all that entails with football games, rush, parties and other activities. That is what makes Athens, GA run! But us natives also enjoy and look forward to summer break and holidays when the some 33,000 students evacuate the town and leave it to us. It's a little like a beach town when the vacationers have all gone home for the winter. We don't even notice the 13,000 or so students in town for summer school. What we have is a laid back place, little traffic and the ability to eat in any restaurant whenever we get good and ready without reservations or long waits. We realize that it would be boring if it were this way all of the time and we look forward to their return in July and the feeling of excitement that they bring, but in the meantime, we'll enjoy the peace and quiet. Let's see, where would we like to eat tonight?
