Moonchild: I too thought this was a heartwarming thread until I read your reply to Guest Leeneia. You read her (I presume it is a her) posting differently than I did, I suppose. I just thought she was being curious and wondered if you had taken into consideration the differences in small and large town living. Not my place to chide you, and really I'm not. It just didn't sound like you, based on the many postings I have seen of yours.

I sure hope you find the right place to settle. I didn't push my area, because although I love living here, 110 degree summers are a bit hard to sell. :>)
