Ever wonder if you’re really from Georgia or if you’re just dreaming? Check out this list of great indicators that’ll help you figure it out. If you can relate to at least half of this list, pinch yourself because you really belong in Georgia!

Not fall, spring, or summer, just hunting season...

If you didn't know that unsweet tea existed or that tea in its natural form is sugar free, you just might be from Georgia.
3.You wear three jackets and coats if it’s even remotely cold outside.

You don't tolerate coldness--not even a little bit. The slightest drop in temperature will have you bundled up like a swaddled newborn.
4. You can run across the yard barefoot.

You can run across a blacktop in the dead heat of the summer barefoot. According to the photographer of this picture, these people are a group of barefoot runners in Stone Mountain, GA, (which just further proves my point. We're even professionals in barefoot running!)
5. Chilling out in front of a bonfire is your pastime of choice.

Going to an outdoor party in Georgia means there's probably going to be a large fire involved if the weather permits.
6. You know what real southern food is supposed to taste like.

You don't play around when it comes to southern food and anything less than honest-to-goodness southern food will get thrown in the trash.
