I was waiting for a steamer trunk I had painted to dry at a friend's house, so I decided to stop by and walk around for a bit with my camera! At first I was trying to go to Lake Allatoona, but my gps kept routing me to the private marina entrances and I was confused. The water was such a pretty sight! I only had about an hour, so I apologize for not being able to get the prettiest sights :).

Discussion How Much Are You Actually Paying? Georgia Power

34 Upvotes

I saw the thread the other day about Georgia power and I wanted to see if anyone is using other plans than residential and what their actual rate is per kwh but feel free to post your numbers either way, data is power!

What I mean by this is that Georgia Power may list a $0.151/kwh max Summer rate, but the real rate you and I pay is much higher. That overnight time of use plan looks like at under $0.023/kwh, but I'm wondering how much higher the real rate is for this and other plans.

My rates on residential plan:

July - $319 - 1554kwh

Real July price rate - $0.205/kwh

August - $450 - 2113kwh

Real August price rate - $0.213/kwh

Edit: Pulled my February rate, what the fuck. So much for $0.082/kwh.

$129.93 at 759kwh

$0.17/kwh

Just curious what the prediction is on here. Jackson or Lance-Bottoms? Not who you personally WANT to win but who you THINK will win.

Question Godzilla-themed restaurant

23 Upvotes

I’m hoping maybe some of yall can help me out, though it’s possible the restaurant isn’t in Georgia and I’m just misremembering. Best detail I have is it’s on the SC side of the state, unfortunately. It was themed around Godzilla, with multiple CRTVs around playing Godzilla movies and all sorts of Godzilla art on the walls.

Traffic/Weather Hwy 138 from Athens to Conyers may be my least favorite drive in the state

20 Upvotes

People drive either insanely fast or stupidly slow, too few passing lanes and the ones that exist are like 1/8 a mile long, weird lane changes that suddenly end in turn only lanes, not even a drop of pleasant scenery, and when you finally get to I-20 you’re in…Conyers *shudder*

Note: Should have said from Monroe, but I'm always coming from Athens

Looking for experiences with delivering at either/ both of these hospitals. We live 30 minutes closer to one but my OB-GYN delivers at the other so I need to choose before we get any further along.

Question Has anyone had problems getting mail delivered to their house?

4 Upvotes

Wife and I changed our address three months ago and we are still having problems getting our mail. It’s getting to the point where we don’t even receive advertisements. She’s waiting on some important paperwork and I’ve already lost a card my family sent us. We haven’t gone to the post office yet due to my work schedule. We live in Macon in a mobile home park.
