The BC YP Retreat was a blast and I feel like I've made over 20 new friends. There were people from Nashville, Charlotte, Orlando, and ofcourse Atlanta. I got to Dawsonville in 40 minutes - yes, THAT is how far I live!
We stayed at the Forrest Hills Resort just north of Dahlonega. The weather was so nice and the leaves were starting to change. During breaks I played frisbee with the Nashville guys.
We had a bon fire and roasted marshmellows to make smores the first night. Unfortunately, Beka and I had too many sweets and couldn't sleep. We ended up talking til 2am! Just like the college days. Waking up at 6am was no easy task!
We had a long day of seminars on BC as the Company of Choice and Plan to Win. Frank threw candy at us for answering his questions and we got to take a personality test, which reminded me of those magazine surveys I use to do in high school.
A couple of guys bought souvenier beer mugs. Eric bought a stuffed animal hat. He said it was the best $12 he'd spent. We took our last group photo in our blue shirts in front of the cabin.

On Friday night, we went to Helen, GA for Oktoberfest on a charter bus. We went to the Helen Festhalle and drank beer. There was Polka Dancing, Phil F. doing the electric slide, Beka doing the mamba train, and Ryan doing the Chicken Dance.

Ok, now I really am jealous. Who's in charge of the MP's? They're fired!
And you guys got to go to Helen too?? *sigh*
Helen...Pigoenforge...what's the difference? Oh yeah, Pigeonforge doesn't have a lady suspicously named "Gertrude" who looks like she works third shift at Waffle House that wants to dance the polka with you. And you're jealous of this?
See, the MP's are a little older, little wiser, more refined. We can be taken out in public. We're going upscale. The Ritz...Rose and Crown...
DAM
