Seeing how I grew up there what part of Macon are you in? I grew up on the Houston Rd. end of Hartley Bridge. As soon as I could afford to I had to get out of Bibb County.

I heard you on that one, I bout won't go into Macon these days without carrying. The only time I don't is because I just got off work, because I can't have a gun there.

yea i cant have a gun(s) at work, but i keep it in my rig...er well guns. macon is getting pretty bad. got robbed once and ever since then im toting. had a problem with macon popo once, got pulled over for speeding and went ahead and told him about the gun between the seats, told him i was about to get out. he threw me on the ground like i was a fawkn criminal, then gave me all this bs even though my permits and lisense to carry were valid and up to date. stupid fawks. im trying to move to nc pretty soon, but waiting until the summer months so it would be easier to transfer my job. im actually out towards juliette, so not really in macon, but i guess you would call it the "north side" of town

My grand mother lives up that way, she's almost right across the street from the entrance to Plant Scherer.

Wish you luck on that move. I wouldn't mind getting a little further away myself, but I actually like Georgia for the most part and for now this is where the job is at.

I thought about doing that.. But I wanted the winch lower then decided I didn't want to cut into my body like that.. Plus I wanted to make sure the winch wasn't going to block airflow to my radiator
