27 does go right past Newnan?? We just came that way from FL.. Maybe not THROUGH Newnan but close enough for me to avoid expressway death traps. And the part of Dallas where they live is close enough to Rockmart.. Which is close enough to Cedartown.. You catch my drift.
I prefer those kind of routes any time. Just me.
ahh, that's ALT 27 that goes through Newnan. I went that way with a camper last year right before the first snow storm taking it to a guy in Luthersville to put a new roof on. I think it runs from Carrollton, through Whitesburg, down to Newnan and ends there. Runs into US 29 and GA 34......Interesting that the powers that be thought we needed 3 major highways to start in Miami and come with in just a few miles of us, US 27, US 41 and I-75. Aren't we special, LOL
Anyway, we can get to dallas easy enough from where we are. I'm like you in that I'd rather take the scenic route when I can, I don't mind stopping at a traffic light in a little town.
