Years ago when I was visiting my retired parents in Florida I was sharing with my dad about the acreage we had purchased to build our new home. He asked me "why do you need so much property?" Before I could answer he noticed his "dumb ass" neighbor doing something or another that irritated...

Lots of spectacular views! Thought I would share some more views from our home. Our home is not valued anywhere near 1 million... but its worth a million to us. :smitten: view from living room view from the bluff view from my fishing hole another deck view

No... not fake news... manipulated news. The virus is real... but there have been so many contradictory reports of the "facts" from the very beginning of this pandemic how can we know the truth? We are taking precautions because we don't know the truth... and apparently neither do the...

IMHO The data we are receiving from all the news and internet sources is not that much different from the "stock market porn" distributed daily for click bait. Daily cases are not daily... daily deaths are not daily... daily hospitalization... who knows. The data can be manipulated to spin the...
