"I have often said I would still like to have a home on the bluff overlooking the Tallahatchie Valley near the Belmont area, but I am sure that will never be."

It all depends on how bad you want that, David. Bad enough to make it happen? Sounds to me like something deep inside you yearns to return to Belmont, or the nearby area. How would your wife feel about that?

I must believe the Tallahatchie Valley preferable to CA. Am I wrong? dennisb@mindspring.com if you prefer.
