Once you visit enough of these places you're quickly able to predict pricing, but here it appeared that the prices were lower than anticipated. A great selection of old (vintage) tools, plenty of glasses, bar setups and an endless supply of casserole dishes. Need an Elvis tapestry? A deer mount? An aluminum set of drinking glasses? All those things and more are here. Another fun place to kill an hour or two.

We went for dinner when visiting my father-in-law. I was impressed at how nice this new building is…read moreand the beautiful grounds. Thursday night was trivia night and we played one round which was fun. The drinks and food are very reasonably priced and non-members are allowed to visit as well. The French dip sandwich was excellent. They have a blue plate special on Thursday nights, which is only $10. Last night it was Chicken Parmesan that everyone said was very good. Everyone we met was very friendly and welcoming. I wish we lived in the area and could visit more regularly.

For the price $9/adult, it was mostly worth a short stop on our trip. The small butterfly…read moregreenhouse had far fewer butterflies than I expected to see and just took a few minutes to circle. There's a pleasant nature walk and lovely unkempt gardens overflowing with native and tropical flowers for the local bees and butterflies. There are two bee hives on the property. The monarch butterflies we saw were outside in the garden, so don't skip the outside portion. They have a small plant sale with a lot of cuttings. If you need a place for a toddler to run around on a car trip, this would be a good place to stop.

ART FOR ART'S SAKE!…read more This gallery is really a co-op for artists. It has five rooms and is currently hosting approximately sixteen artists. There works are varied and include paintings, jewelry, sculpture and other mediums. When I walked in, I was immediately drawn to a black and white portrait of a man in a cowboy hat. It was very interesting because the artist had captured the very character of his subject. As I am bent over, I hear a voice and when I look up I see the artist and the subject standing there. Crazy! I go back to the art because it just draws me in. As I am exploring the piece, I learn that the subject is an actor, voice over artist and a poet. He actually performs what he describes as "cowboy poetry" but says "you probably won't like it". Wow, what a salesman. Never assume! I wish that he had a sample of his poetry available because a CD of the poetry was paired with his portrait for sale. I just don't purchase material unless I am familiar with it and somehow feel a connection. I feel that this was a missed opportunity. However, I did take a business card to follow up on the cowboy poet and his specific type of poetry. It was nice to talk to some of the artists and to look at their work. This was a very unique space and I noticed that it also hosts wine tastings which for wine drinkers is a great way to enjoy art. Art and wine just pair together quite nicely. If you are interested in their special events, you can check their Facebook page. This was a nice gallery and a nice departure from the hustle and bustle of the Gold Rush activity. It would be a nice destination on your journey through Dahlonega.

My daughter has taken weekly piano lessons with Danielle for several years now and plays the piano…read moreabsolutely beautifully. Danielle has her teaching style down to a "T" because every recital I've been too has little musicians who truly enjoy playing and don't see it as chore. I think that is extremely telling of her ability as a teacher to encourage, motivate, and challenge her students. Studio is part of a historic building in downtown Gainesville and renders itself to a more cozy feeling which is not intimidating for the beginner and warm and inviting for the more experienced. All ages of music students are welcome!
