CAN YOU READ! PLEASE READ MY POST AGAIN!

ALL THE PROJECTS ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION OR HAVE BEEN COMPLETED THIS YEAR!

Do you ever know what you're talking about? I mean seriously... The boat parade, the ball drop downtown, Artist row, etc.


How can something be a great dream? When all the projects are under construction. Or have been completed this year. Don't hate....

You need to visit Augusta. Because I don't think you have been here in twenty years. Then maybe, you wouldn't be saying stupid things.
