Over time things change. Some things change for the better while other things change for the worse. One thing that’s bound to change though is your environment.

When you look around now the area includes AMC theaters as well as the construction of two malls, Discover Mills and The Mall of Georgia. What I am trying to point out is with more population comes more development and my town has seen plenty of it.

The last part of my hometown which has changed is the
