Chattanooga is really a beautiful little city. It's got a nice artsy vibe and lots of outdoor activities too. I don't know about the beer scene but wouldn't be surprised if there was a decent one.
For that matter, Nashville has a bunch of local breweries and is going through quite the restaurant renaissance...
Huh, Matt, I would not have guessed that! I've only visited twice but didn't get that feeling at all.
The touristy areas are really nice and well kept, but there are a lot of bad neighborhoods and economically depressed areas too.
On the pro side, it has annual Iron Man trialthalons, a regatta (I think the only one in Tennessee), a Southern Writers Conference, and Lookout Mountain is an easy inclined tram ride away if you want to have a picnic day a half mile up where you can see 7 states.
I love it when I reply to a "this project wasn't updated as of last Thursday, please schedule time to discuss" with "it was updated on Friday" and then the response I get from an upper level manager is "Sweet, thx". Alrighty then.
Which then reminded me that K-Bug is dating a guy who has a tattoo that says "Sweet". And yes, his best friend has a tat that said "Dude".
Is his mystery exceeded only by his power?
My mom died at around 8 this morning. It's something that has been coming for more than a decade, and has felt imminent for at least the past few years.
