Default Georgia/ SOUTHSIDE

It seems like every time i turn around the North side folks are doing some sort of get together. Which is a GREAT thing, BUT I was just curious to see if there are a few of us southsiders who might want to try to get up a cruise and or a lunch meet?
I'll throw out a suggestion!
Saturday June 7th at Buckners family restaurant in Jackson Ga. I know the owner and it's a great place to eat. Meet there at 11:30 to beat the crowd.
Buckners
1168 Bucksnort Road
Jackson Ga. 30233
770-775-6150

If there is any interest in doing something like this, just post up and we'll see how it looks!
Chris

Newnan here and I am game if I am around. Just another reason to take the Vette out for a joy ride. Oh, if there is anything over a 0% chance of rain I might have to take a rain check. I can bring the SRT 8 though, and still attend right?

The only bad part at least the last time I was there (1992) it was a dirt parking lot.

Yep you sit down at a big round table and there is a lazy susan in the middle of the table, then they come by and load it down with food. They keep bringing the food until everyone has had their fill.

I live in Newnan, but would love to join, but I have to work on the 7th. It is a great idea for the southside thing. We need to make it happen....

Default It was so GOOD!

My oldest son is home on a short leave with the Marines. He asked to go down to Buckners last night. So we all put on the feed bag and munched out!!!!
Oh yeah something I forgot to mention. Buckners only accepts paper.
Checks or cash only!!!! No debit or credit cards accepted!!!
