John,
Hate to see you go... No wait I'll be right behind you

. My daughter, an Son-Inlaw left the Danbury area two years ago for Conway SC. With Four kids they were just getting by. With-in one year they bought a new house. My son-in-law got a job as a police officer(the job he always wanted) My daughter is managing a hair salon in Myrtle Beach. Even though we miss the grand kids the good news is they are doing great. We bought a place in Myrtle Beach so we wouldn't have to stay in a hotel each time we went down. I think the people in the south are much nicer than those in the north-east. That's coming from someone born & raised in New England. The cost of living is so much less. Pay scale is lower, but with what I can get for my house here I can move south and live motgage free. We have a couple more year here before we head south. Charlton is only an hour south of MB. If your down by Oct. We should hook up for fall Bike Week
I see a going away ride/barbeque in your future.
Best of luck
Mark
