HALP I’m in Georgia. Everyone is old.
Context! Meaghan’s been in Georgia for, like, two hours, and is already getting shitfaced. She’s at the Three Sisters winery in Northern Georgia, right outside of Dahlonega, up the 400. It’s about half an hour to White County, or more specifically: Cleveland, Georgia, home to not just one, but two Jewish summer camps. Which were square in the middle of what was, until about fifteen years ago, Klan Country. More dangerously, one of which was attended by me for eight years. White County is also dry! But beautiful, too. Further out is Helen, Georgia, which is like Disneyland for Nazis (think lots of fudge places, tubing down the ‘Hoochie, plenty of Confederate Flag retailers and everything suffixed with ‘Haus’), but at least you can drink there, I guess. The only refuge of safety and peace in the area is a nice little coffeeshop called Sweetwater, in Sautee, right outside of Helen. Chances are that in this lifetime, you’ll never find yourself there. Or as I emailed Meaghan:
