Might see my brother and his family! I attended 2 races WAY back in the 1970s...when the noise and crowds weren't nearly so bad today...those 2 races were plenty for me!
But...have a great time!

Sorry, i bet yall are tired of me! Anyways, I know i need to come and visit when the race isn't going on, but are there any Plantation homes that are B&B's? I want to own one of them Plantation homes, by the time i am ready to retire! haha I know they have a lot still in GA but are there any in Alabama?

One suggestion: if you're going to 'Dega for the race, realize that the pace will be much different (not only there but in surrounding communities) during the week of the race than at any other time. My wife & I went camping at Cheaha State Park nowhere near either race, and I think it will suit what you're looking for, though I can't speak for jobs, etc. G' luck!

Are you talking bout me movng there?I was told to come there sometime when the race isn't going on. Its really different during the race, i guess.
Thank you breer23! I love it during the racing! I bet i will love it more without the race
