i think it gets to hot in atlanta and the humidity is miserable You will catch a tan even if you dont want one. Im already dark skinned but it seems like I get blacker in the summer

And who wants ac all the time? I like opening my windows and feeling a nice breeze but you never feel that in the summer in atlanta unless a hurricane is approaching

I love the mansions in ATL, you get so many of them all over the metro. The summer in ATL is nowhere near as brutal as the Florida summers but that doesnt mean to say that an ATL summer is tame.

if it only lasts for four months then that is perfectly fine because you can leave town on holiday

A year later the space goes to the next guest....Atlanta and humidity? Travel a bit, this ain't nothin'.....
are you joking about the burials in New Orleans being above ground? I have to check that out

It's all relative. Where are you from?
I'm from Calgary in western Canada where there is no humidity, infact we could use alittle humidity here because it's very dry

July and August seemed hottest but I don't think I ever felt miserable.
