    Grew up in Blairsville between '95 and '07, so many memories here. Going to friends' houses all over here, Ellijay was one of the two places we went for Wal-Mart, Murphy NC being the other. Wild seeing them from this kind of angle

    Visually speaking, Hiawassee blows all these other cities out of the water, with no competition. It's GORGEOUS. I wonder if the job opportunities and living safety matches how beautiful it looks.

    One thing your video didn't mention about Ellijay is that it's known for being surrounded by awesome wineries. For a future video. it would be cool if you did flyovers of the top 5 to 10 wineries in North Georgia Wine Country. Some of them have beautiful settings. Would love to see a Top 10 North Georgia Waterfall drone video too if you got the effort to hike to some of the best ones!

    Helen is my favorite haunt, but I've learned recently California Vineyard have bought land east of Dahlonega-west of Cleveland. There are large and small vineyards in the area, but I don't like the California influence.
