This weekend, enjoy free admission to Northwest Georgia historical sites as part of Georgia History Festival’s statewide Super Museum Sunday. Or, get in the Valentine’s Day spirit with markets, a dinner, a concert and more in the Chattanooga area. If history and love aren’t the vibe, then consider giving a Highland cow a hug during Blessing Creek Farms’ Cow Hug Day in Rock Spring. Here’s the weekend chronology.
