Drift Racing Returns to Road Atlanta in May

Drifting is a high-skill, high-powered motor sport that calls for drivers to control a car while it slides sideways at high speed through a marked course. It is similar to rally racing, but is done on a closed, paved course. It is judged on execution and style rather than just time.

Nest Feathers Jewelry Store in Oakwood

The way to most girls’ hearts is through the jewelry department!
This Valentine’s Day season, start a tradition that can offer gift giving solutions all year long – a Pandora bracelet or necklace from Nest Feathers.
Chock full of high fashion for home and self, this gift shop in Oakwood offers a wide range of items from pricey to down right bargains.
We love their selection of Pandora charms – they have every one in the whole catalog and are always first to get new items. If you or someone you love collects Pandora, Nest Feathers is a must stop.

For a true “ladies who lunch” experience, take a break from browsing the inventory to enjoy a fresh sandwich from their in-house deli – a favorite is the toasted pimento cheese with homemade jam – delicious!
