ELLIJAY, GEORGIA . . .

 

April 18, 2015

The pain continues! Is this what fun is? Today with the clearer weather I was able to hobble outside about the cabin property and take a couple more pictures of the cabin. And instead of sitting at Little Bear Cabin most of the day like we did yesterday not moving we decided to take off earlier. A long walk will do us good to stretch these leg muscles out. 


Instead of going north back to Blue Ridge like we did yesterday Tim and I decided to head south to Ellijay. Since a large festival was happening today in Blue Ridge. We just didn't think we could handle the large push'n crowds in Blue Ridge with our crippled selves. Good choice!


Ellijay turned out to be just what we were looking for. A small local town that wasn't too busy for a weekend stroll. Ellijay has many good quality antique and deco stores to visit along with the cute town square. Plus by walking through this all American town we were able to get ourselves physically moving again. 


The 1907 Restaurant and Bar was the perfect choice for a late lunch. A few porter beers, smoked fish trout spread, buttermilk chicken, a burger with fried green tomatoes and applewood bacon, fresh cut green beans and greens slaw with carrots hit the spot. Oh yeah!!!


I won't bore you all with all the details but will just leave you with a few more photos from around town. So if anyone is in the area please drive off the beaten path and pay this little home town a visit. You will find out it's worth the effort.
