What a great song by Ray Charles. Of course, I don’t think he was singing about rural high speed internet but maybe he should have been! It is one of the great incentives to live in some of the most beautiful areas in the country.

Georgia has much more than internet services to sing about. A rich, sometimes turbulent, history only adds to the allure. Geographically speaking, the wonders of the Appalachians with its many rivers cascading down the mountainsides; the long, sandy seashores, and thick pine forests are without a doubt the reason so many make their way to the Peach State and have since the early 18^th century. Of course, it’s only been in recent history that rural internet service has allowed the most beautiful remote spots the connections they need.
