This is a college town that I have wanted to visit for probably 30 years or more. I find many similarities to Lawrence, Kansas and Columbia, Missouri - two college towns I have explored very deeply. Athens is legendary in American music for the many college rock bands that have come from here, most notably R.E.M. and the B-52's. It is a great pleasure to get to spend part of a day here. I would love to explore this town more in depth some day.
It was super beach hot, here, and very buggy. The dogs and I found a watering hole to rest in and stay away from the sun. I got a sody and the bartender is definitely a dog person he made sure the dogs were well supplied with cool water even though they were not allowed in the bar.
