I find the use of AI particularly odd from someone who is a published writer.

Lake George - beautiful lake though the western shore is over developed and very commerical. But the area economy is supported to a large degree by vacationers. Ya take the good with the bad I guess.

We moved here years ago. Would never go back to northern NJ, that is unless forced by circumstance.

The 'Dacks in the fall are beautiful . . . all those awesome colors.

Dual citizen? What's the country of your choice, if you don't mind my asking. Our older daughter would love to give Ireland a try - Denmark interests me (we have roots in both countries.) I told them if they were to move to distant lands hubbie & I would follow. Family is the most important to us - and I am so heart broken over the direction the US has been moving in. The state of the healthcare system is an absolute disgrace. I am equally disgusted over my husband being denied his retirement benefits from the USN - a 20 year vet and denied benefits due to (off all things) a signature on a document. (Navy: We can't find those records - well, they are no longer kept there, they were sent elsewhere, and there was a fire . . . . OMG!!!)
