Hey guys, I will be moving to Georgia from Lynchburg tomorrow! I already have a job and housing there, so it doesn't seem like I need prayer for much...but I am really struggling with leaving everything I know and going to a whole new place, to put it bluntly:

I am ABSOLUTELY terrified, and sad too!

i work a full day tomorrow and will be hitting the road at about 6:30 pm for a longgg drive to Athens, GA....prayers would be appreciated!

A transfer I take it or starting late?

Either way, have a safe move.

Athens is nice -- I helped open a Lowes store there, back in the day. Plenty of great food :)

Harry Bissett's if you like Cajun food. As I recall, they used to have a Cajun buffet once or twice a week with some really good food on it (first place I ever ate alligator and rattlesnake). Any of the Mellow Mushroom locations has great pizza. And the duck at the Thai Cafe is really good, but a bit pricey (I was on an expense account, so money wasn't really an issue for me).

They've got a lot of decent sandwich places, but those things go in and out so much I'm not even sure if what I ate at is still there. They've got an incarnation of The Varsity there that's really good, but if you want the original you have to go into Atlanta.

WOW that was my first thought too. Now I have that in my head and I don't know what frightens me more!

Best of success in your move. You will be fine!!

Kidding. Kidding.

Best of luck! I admire your courage in taking on the unknown, for sure.
