You've got it about right. The oldest grandaughter graduates high school this spring. The other is a freshman in high school. College is definately in their future. My daughter and her husband have kicked themselves every since they moved back here from Az about 10 years ago. Said they should have stopped and set up camp at about Oklahoma. They've talked about moving to South Carolina after the last one graduates.

I've just been here too long. 55 years in the same house. We should have gone south 20 years ago when the kids were too young to argue and would have had to have gone with us.

I'm not one to believe in past lives or any of that crap,but from the first time I ever crossed the Mason/Dixon line 30 years ago,I've thought I was born in the wrong place. My azz is in the north,but my heart's in Dixie I guess.

Getting out in the field ain't what's gonna cure me either. Been working the same fields for 45 years. It gets to feel like no time passes at all anymore before I'm right back seeing the same scenery all over again. I don't know,it's not depression,it's the whole ball of wax. Seems like our social life is at the funeral home anymore,all the old folks dying off. Shoot,if we've gotta make new friends and have new neighbors,it might as well be where we want to be.

jm,I'm serious,we're going to be seeing you some time this summer. I want to look around down there. The wife checked the job market and found 78 ads for LPNs just on one site down your way.

Guess if the kids want to inherit a farm,they just might have to leave here themselves to get it.
