i lived in gainesville from '97 to 2004!!!!!! we now live in jefferson, but DH still works in gainesville at the hunt tower. what a small world!!!!!! i'm a court reporter and i work in gainesville every now and then doing depositions and filling in for the court reporters there. mostly i work in barrow, jackson and banks counties, though. where do you work? where does your husband work? if you don't want to share, i totally understand. after all, you don't know me. and if you'd like to shoot me a PM instead, feel free! 
SSR - it's our home DVC resort. We've stayed there twice - in a 1BR Villa both times. The bus service there is quite efficient. The resort itself is pretty spread out, but not too difficult to get around. We were in Congress Park this year with a DTD view (request at check-in). Last year we stayed in The Paddock. The food court there is one of our favorites!
I used to work in downtown Gainesville & LOVE Luna's! My brother had his wedding reception there and DH & I ate dinner there for our anniversary last yr. I used to eat lunch there about once a week when I worked in town ... there & the Collegiate (SP?) grill ..... yummy!
Real sweet Dawn. Way to go to run someone off...kidding.
THAT is hillarious!!!
My father retired in '97 as the Chief Probation Officer for the Piedmont Circuit (Banks, Barrow & Jackson Counties)! His main office was in Winder, but had one in Jefferson too! We lived in G'ville b/c he didn't want his probationers to be in the same town with his family ... understandable.
I now live just over the Lumpkin Co. line off Hwy 60 but I work next to Perimeter Mall - accross from the King & Queen bldgs. DH works at Kubota - I'm sure you're familiar with them. He's a QC inspector on the RTV line.
Sorry y'all ...... "IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL..."
