You don't have to go to the mountains to see the colors change in Georgia! We had really warm temperatures in Georgia this year, leading to a late explosion of color in November and early December.
I found the perfect pond.
And my car may have been the only one on this road that day!
The barn glowed from a hilltop.
This is probably the prettiest buzzard in Franklin County, GA. He was watching the explosion of color right along with me! Fall Colors in Franklin County, GA this year made a spectacular show!

Successfully serving the Athens, Ga metro area and surrounding counties! Athens is home to music groups REM, B52s & Widespread Panic and the home of The University of Georgia and their Bulldawgs!
With 5 corporate transfers through McLane Corp. in just 8 years, my wife & I needed someone to just "do it"! Michelle made this the easiest transition we've ever had. Needless to say when it was time to move again she listed & sold our home in record time with record ease. We've found a true friend in Georgia with this Realtor. Victor Lange I am so glad we found you! You were the 3rd agent we listed our condo with and the only 1 who did not list and forget it! We are excited that it sold and enjoyed watching you and the new buyer's excitement at the closing table. Great job! Nancy Smith Michelle has provided me with the info I needed to make good decisions about buying & selling rental property. As a new investor, I don't think I would have had the nerve to accumulate the properties that I have without her!
