    Here’s what one visitor says about Cloudland Canyon State Park: “$5 entrance fee for gorgeous views and short, but rewarding trails. Trails are extremely moderate for an experienced hiker, but present diverse landscape. The trails were well marked, mostly clear from a lot of foot traffic and dirt. Look out for armadillos! We saw two while we were here. You’ll hear them rustling around. We enjoyed going all the way around the loop and then ending with a peek at both waterfalls which weren’t too full but couldn’t have fomo. Lots of stairs to the waterfalls as expected. Camping, RV spots, cabins+ available for an extended stay. The trails were lively with people and dogs enjoying the mild Tuesday afternoon. I do recommend! Views still available right off from the parking lot if you are not feeling a hike. Bonus is that the park also has a disc golf course.”

    4. Fort Mountain State Park

    Here’s what one visitor says about Fort Mountain Park. “We visited Fort Mountain State Park recently and we had a wonderful time. Since we have visited all 56 Tennessee State Parks we thought we would visit Georgia State Parks. We are glad we went here. We enjoyed seeing the 4 story look out tower. It was a hike to it but not to hard. There is a lot of history here and several plaques are placed so we could read them. From the tower we hiked to the over look. Wow. This has amazing views here. We also drove around the park and we saw a nice lake and campground. There is another trail that goes to a waterfall which is nice. Overall great experience. Can’t wait to go back.”

    5. Tallulah Gorge State Park

    Here’s what one visitor says about Tallulah State Gorge Park: “What an absolutely beautiful park. We spent two days at the park, walking trails and enjoying the sights and water, and we still didn’t get the opportunity to see everything. But what we did see was stunning!

    There are miles of trails you can hike. Some are located on the north side and some on the south side of the gorge. Additionally, you can cross the gorge via the suspension bridge, and even go to the bottom of the gorge. That said, we didn’t go to the bottom – it’s only 100 passes a day, though they are free – but I imagine it’s awesome. And we are hoping to do that ourselves next visit. I highly, highly recommend you been in decent to good shape if you plan to go to the bottom because there are a lot of steps (over 1000 total down and back up) that you must climb to do so. We opted to go down to the suspension bridge and back up and it was quite a work out on its own.”

    6. Sweetwater Creek

    A post shared by Brett (@brettmhenderson) on

    Here’s what one reviewer says about Sweetwater Creek State Park: “A very well-staffed park. Excellent signage to direct you on where to go. We only took the Red Trail to see the Mill Ruins on a quick visit, but I do recommend that one for beginner hikers! The path is nicely packed and wide for comfort without much of a grade. I was a little disappointed in all the fencing around the ruins keeping you from getting a closer look, but I totally understand the purpose of it being there. The water was lovely and calming also. I would recommend this spot for a nice, relaxing afternoon in nature.”

    Final Word

    The Peach State has some of the most beautiful sights you could ever see this time of year. Don’t let the nice weather pass you by. Pack your bags, plan a trip and get to going!

    To save money, look for the cheapest flights from Atlanta that are on sale.  To keep costs down, use these travel hacks to save money and time.

    New Renderings Show Details Of The Gathering Project In South Forsyth County
    craigsotherlistyahoo-com April 26, 2023
    2 Min Read

    Work has begun on The Gathering, the largest mixed-use development in North Georgia’s history and a soon-to-be destination place.

    The 100-acre site, which was unveiled days ago, will cost $2 billion and serve as “the gateway to Forsyth County,” according to developers.

    New Renderings Show The Gathering In South Forsyth County

    Fresh renderings show several facets of the project, including how it could attract everything from a major sports franchise to the circus.

    How the project will ultimately be funded remains to be seen as different ideations such as taxes and private donations have all been tossed about.

    “The Gathering at South Forsyth will be an economic driver like no other,” said Alfred John – Chairman, Forsyth County Commission. “It will enhance what our County currently offers with an added focal point for world-class events, shopping and dining, and it will generate thousands of jobs both during, and after, construction. In addition, for the first time, our students and their families will be able to celebrate milestone achievements like graduations without limitations or being forced to travel outside the County’s boundaries. This best-in-class development will create a halo effect that will raise the County’s visibility and provide added economic growth opportunities,” he added.

    Final Word

    Atlanta has one of the best real estate markets in the country, with affordable housing in every quadrant of the city. Large backyards, manicured parcels and strong neighborhoods with ample dining amenities make it one of the top places for transplants.

    Not to mention that the city’s dining scene is the best in the Southeast. Looking for a home? Check out our Real Estate Resource Page.

    How To Get A Last-Minute Tax Extension
    craigsotherlistyahoo-com April 17, 2023
    3 Min Read

    If you’re a last-minute person, filing your taxes is not necessarily your season. Fortunately, you can file an extension on your taxes and avoid paying a penalty. Keep reading to learn how to do it.

    When Is Tax Day 2023?

    Tax day is Tuesday, April 18, 2023. That’s the last day to file. But what if you need an extension?  We’re going to show you how to do it. Never pay someone to file an extension for you, it’s free to do.

    Millions of Americans fail to file their taxes annually, subjecting themselves to huge penalties that accrue interest. You don’t want to be like that.

    If you need to file a last-minute extension, here’s what you need to do.

    How To File Your Tax Extension Form for Free

    Individual tax filers, regardless of income, can use Free File to electronically request an automatic tax-filing extension.

    • Filing this form gives you until Oct. 15 to file a return.
    • To get the extension, you must estimate your tax liability on this form and should also pay any amount due.

    Get An Extension When You Pay On Your Taxes

    If you can only pay part of your tax bill, you can indicate that the payment is for an extension using Direct Pay, the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS), or a credit or debit card. This way you won’t have to file a separate extension form and you will receive a confirmation number for your records.

    Extension Forms by Filing Status

    Individuals

    Form 4868, Application for Automatic Extension of Time To File U.S. Individual Income Tax Return (PDF)

    Special rules may apply if you are:

    Business and Corporations

    Form 7004, Application for Automatic Extension of Time to File Certain Business Income Tax, Information, and Other Returns (PDF)

    Form 1138, Extension of Time for Payment of Taxes by a Corporation Expecting a Net Operating Loss Carryback (PDF)

    The easiest way for criminals to steal sensitive data is simply to ask for it. IRS urges people to learn to recognize phishing emails, calls or texts that pose as familiar organizations such as banks, credit card companies or even the IRS. Keep sensitive data safe.

    Final Word

    Tax season is one of many times of the year when you need to be especially careful about your money moves. File an extension on your taxes to save your cash.

    If you’re interested in making extra income, don’t miss How To Make Money At Home and How To Quarantine And Make Cash.

    The Superica empire continues to grow in metro Atlanta. The latest addition to the portfolio is a 6,000-square-foot restaurant at the Ashford Lane development in Dunwoody.

    Acclaimed Chef Ford Fry has built his Superica brand, which specializes in Tex-Mex with a twist, into five restaurants now in the Atlanta area.

    Have you ever been to a Superica? It is one of Atlanta’s best Tex-Mex restaurants for sure.

    What Should I Order At Superica?

    While the hours of operation vary depending on which Superica you go to, the menu doen’t change that much. That means you can find your favorite tacos, including cool variations of street-style tacos, fajitas al carbon and a great brunch.
