Thanksgiving Night in Hawkinsville...

[Cadcom]

Stayed in two different chains motels in Rome last month and then one in Waycross a couple of weeks ago. Every one of the owners were named Patel.
Does the Patel family own every damn motel in Georgia?

There was a news article (I forget who) that wrote an article about that. The answer is yes!

Morning in Hawkinsville. I can say for certain it's the first time I ever woke up here.

Long but interesting read. I know a few and the one thing I do know that's isn't in the article is that they're all cheap asses.

Not a Patel but some would call me cheap. I prefer the term thrifty.

As am I. Nothing wrong with saving money but some folks have turned it into an art form.
