[at-l] woohooo, now i have to go!

yes, it's official.  last night i called and bought my ticket from 
Seattle, WA to Atlanta, GA via the almighty Greyhound.  $59 one way.  
it's nonrefundable so there's no turning back now!  i leave here at 
12noon on April Fool's Day (sorta ominous isn't it :0) and arrive in 
atlanta on the 4th at about noon.  yeeeehaaaaaaa!!

so now my questions:
a) what's the best way for a never-been-to-atlanta kid to get from the 
greyhound station to springer?  cheap as possible please as i'm the one 
who's trying to make it on $1 p/mile.

2) will i notice a significant difference in the people between out here 
(back in the ol' west) and back east?  i've never been further east than 
texarkanna (on the texas arkansas border).  will i get culture shock?

iii) i have no idea - and the guide books don't really go into this type 
of info - where the cold stuff starts/ends/starts again, and so where i 
might have to carry warmest stuff or summer type stuff.  do i just start 
with warm, go till i get hot, then send some home, then wait till i get 
cold, and send for more stuff?  is that how most people do it?

curious
