Happy Valentines Day everyone. Hope you’re having a wonderfully romantic escape. I know many folks look down upon this time of the year as a merchant’s excuse to sell cards and chocolate, but I like to think of it as an excuse to get away.

Pause from the normal routines and call your parents. Skype with your friends from 1,000 miles away. Get in-touch with your inner Romantic. No I do not endorse going around kissing strangers; I’m thinking more of the 19th-century Romantic [literary] period … Try unplugging from your desk / phones … Stop reading this blog and write a poem

On Saturday, February 16, head to lovely Dahlonega, GA. The Appalachian “Blue Ridge” Mountains are absolutley breathtaking during this time of year, covered in thick snow with crystal clear waterfalls and glistening streams. Too chilly for a hike? - snuggle up with hot cocoa and great music! The Crimson Moon is the premier venue in North Georgia. A dinner theater with comfy sofas, amazing food and friendly wait staff it is a no-brainer. Only a quick 60-minute drive from Atlanta. $10 adv., $12 door.
