Atlanta's skyline slowly becoming another Vancouver (Pitts: credit, new home, health)

Now your "point" is that the Chattahoochee isn't good for boating, but just inner tubing. This, once again, is false:

Boating - Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (U.S. National Park Service)
Chattahoochee River Tubing, Canoes, Kayaks, Rafts | Shoot the Hooch
Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area | BOATING |

Now please, for your own sake, just stop. This looks bad, even for you.

I just love the Park Service's idea of "boating"

What other major city has a beautiful wild river in a National Park in the shadow of skyscrapers? A river so clean on the Northside you can fish for trout.

No other place in the U.S. comes to mind, but it would most certainly not be Houston.

They sometimes hold bass fishing competitions in the rivers of Pittsburgh.

Actually, you're the one who comes across as being insecure about leaving Atlanta.

Bass can be found anywhere, even in dirtier and not scenic waters like those of Pittsburgh and Houston.

Trout on the other hand, are not. The water needs to be cold AND clean.

And sorry if your idea of 'boating' only includes the motorized variety. That is not allowed on the National Park waters of the Chattahoochee for environmental reasons, something you clearly place a low priority on.

Ah yes, the ol' turn the tables argument. No, I'm am quite confident in my leaving Atlanta when I could,and would do it again. You guys are the ones with the hyper-reactive defense of Atlanta, even resorting to ad hominem as a defense strategy.

Reading is fundamental; here is the caption under that photo: "Flotilla of rafts, canoe, and kayak in the Chattahoochee River Palisades." And the first sentence of that webpage clearly states, "The 48 miles of the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area is available for raft, canoe, kayak, motor boat and other small boat use year round."

Much more than just inner tubing, as you insinuated.

Now please stop...seriously.

Hey, they even have a marina on the river.

If you were confident, you would not obsess about a city you left. And you used the insecurity ad hominem. I did turn it around because it's so completely obvious.

Yeah, keep'em small. Maybe outboard types.

Great to hear!

Now if only you had confidence in yourself to move on with your life and become a happier more positive person at whatever you do and let go of the past in the online realm.
