And I was about 4 miles away from "The Ralph", too...only going the other way!
PS My son and his family live in Hamburg...the Bethford area. Are you nearby?
Hi Ceejay, we live in the Armor area near Draudt's farm. I don't know the area where your son is. How long have you lived in the Villages? Are you far from Duval? Do you ever come back to visit Buffalo? We plan on keeping our house for a few years for the summer. Yes, it was sad about the Courier closing, but my sister and I have done better with our jobs since then. I work for an environmental company in Lancaster, NY. Ecology & Environment for the past 23+ years. My sister Carol works for the Federal gov't. Hope to meet you when we finally come down for the winter. Janet
