Not a problem..... and if you do make the move to NC, you'll be
closer to the USS NC museum and hopefully it will be enhanced by the
addition of the USS Kitty Hawk. Charleston's Patriots Point is a good
show, too!


Well, now it looks as though we'll stay here for a couple more years.
I'm in the mood to move, but SWMBO is having second thoughts. Our next
door neighbor just moved back down there and bought a beautiful house
on an acre for half of what his sold for here. He's just north of Wake
Forest.
