(37,983 posts)I have go to twice a year. I was always uncomfortable before, now more so. Although, I did have a good experience in the Deep South. Was in western Georgia and decided to drive into Alabama as I had never been in the state. Took the major roads in and decided to drive back the secondary roads. Didn't get more than 5 miles before I was pulled over by a county sheriff.....not a good situation.......a white boy from the North East driving a rental car in deep Alabama. he asked where I was going and when I told him, he said no your not. He escorted me to the major highway and made sure I got on. Turns out the sheriff saved my ass......where I was going to drive through didn't like strangers......kind of a shotgun reception. The next day, my co - workers were incredulous that I even went up there. For me, a lesson well learned. Won't do that again.
