But yea, I've read that honey toward the back of the hive can be too far away in the cold and I'm wondering if on a warm winter day I can rotate a full frame closer to the brood.  A 70-degree-day in February isnt out of the question.

You are in GA, winter is over by late December. Once it is consistently 50 they are out flying, if it is 70? you can bet they are able to go get their own from any side of the hive, and by the time it is that warm in Feb you should already be watching for a swarm :)
