Ok, for 4 or 5 days--kinda close to Atlanta?? Do you want to drive or fly? If you are driving (and like the beach), you can't go wrong with the Gulf Coast. We like Destin, Florida a lot and it is only around 5 hours away. We haven't been, but have friends who always go to the Highlands in North Carolina (mountains, etc). That is a little closer, too. Hilton Head is nice (but I don't think the beach is as pretty as the Gulf of Mexico is). Hmmmmm, I'm going to keep thinking. I love getaways!!!
