A year ago my husband and I bought a house in a rural area just outside of Dahlonega Georgia, now while I love the country, the driving and rapid rising gasoline costs started to really get to us. All of a sudden we were spending as much money on fuel as we were our mortgage. A trip to the grocery store was costly and as for visiting family and friends in Atlanta it was an expensive day trip. We felt we were flushing money down the toilet so something had to give....
The housing market has definitely suffered a great deal in the more rural areas, and I believe it is due in part to the high cost of fuel.
Lets hope that they finally start to drill our own resources and free ourselves from the control of foreign oil supplies. I think if we don't do something soon to send a clear message to our "Friends" overseas, prices will continue to rise and goodness knows what we should expect. It is beyond me that a resource rich country like the United States should be dependent on any foreign source for oil. I also think it is about time to let the powers that be..ie. Washington, what the voters want, so many of our politicians pander to special interest groups and seem to ignore what the people are saying. Heck, the sad thing is we put them there!! Okay I will get off my soap box I have said my bit.
On a positive note we have now rented a home 35 miles closer in to Atlanta, and are putting the country home on the market!! We are back in the hub of things. Only a few minutes from everything we can spend more time working and less money on gas and on the road, who knows we may even be able to afford a country vacation in a few months!!

I live 8 miles from the scenic town of Dahlonega Georgia. Dahlonega is a quaint town and home to North Georgia college. The Square in Dahlonega houses the "Gold Museum" and for a small fee you can take a tour. There are restaurants, shops, and a few pubs, bed and breakfast accomodation and the sweet little Holly theater thas shows movies and the occasional stage production.
There is a certain air about Dahlonega that is hard to explain, a certain sense of sophistication mixed with charm. It was in the USA top 5 places to retire, and there is a lovely slow pace of life yet your only about 60 miles from Atlanta. There are gorgeous Golf courses, hiking trails, Trout fishing and if you are retirement age you can take free courses at the college.
Dahlonega Square offers lots of activities throughout the year, featuring Bluegrass and country music, Jazz and military bands at the college campus.
