Since my Mom's family left there in the 1850's it's fallen apart.
Cincinatti, that is. Now all they got left is Kroger. <GD&RRF>.

So true about New Hampshire. It's unfortunate they're being overrun by
Boston commuters. Their property values have skyrocketted but city services
such as water and sewer are almost nonexistent outside of the large cities
and well water is contaminated with high levels of iron and maganese.

Go to Soutern Maine where the coast is. Forget Northern Maine where
Canada is. No knock on Canada, just anything north of Bangor is
forsaken.

Got transferred there from Guam in January 1984. I considered it my
punishment for the Article 15 I got in Guam.

For being young and indestructable. Doing things I shouldn't have
