Gracie, for the record, I have never included you in the "Village Fever" group. As you pointed out you were slow to love it and that has only grown since you've been here. I would never accuse you of having Blind Faith about the place.

I've always enjoyed your posts. Yes, you are enthusiastic about the place, but I've never seen you say things like, "it doesn't matter if the house isn't built well and falls apart, I'll be dead by then." I've never seen you snap at anyone. I see you as a very postive person who has found some place you love. Comments from people like you help make me think I'd enjoy it there.

On a personal note, you were so supportive this summer when I was having all my health issues during our visit, that I will never forget it...even though we never made it over to have ice tea on your porch. We would still like to sometime though.

Your list of negatives is pretty thorough, too.
