They are such...Difficult to comment on your blogs. They are such tidy and complete nuggets of prose which leave little space for the insertion of additional wit or insight. (That is my way of saying I really dig this stuff). <br /><br />A quick thought that spiked into my brain from the past as I read: Once upon a time our family unit was contemplating the location of our next residence. My employment location and lifestyle pointed to a move across a certain state line to a county that named after our 17th President. (google it. I had to). Yet, we rejected this option out of concerns that it would set inappropriate life-style expectations with our progeny for the remainder of their lives. Instead, we ended up in a slightly (oh so slightly) more economically diverse community. The hope was that exposure to wider cross section of society's population demographic would aid in a broader view of the world. Perhaps it would make it easier for them to maintain empathy and understanding of their fellow man. <br /><br />Granted, nothing new here in my thoughts, but I am very gratified to see and read your thoughts. <br /><br />Very much wanting to head your way. Not finding a good time to do so. Really strong desire to hop on one of the motorized two-wheeled conveyances and taking a multi week ride your direction.
