Ouch, my 7yr. old son feels your pain. He has a spiral fracture of the Tibia bone and is in a full leg cast. For some odd reason his bone is not healing that quickly, it has been about 8 weeks now and it is still cracked. I hope you have an easier time. and Get Well Soon.

Default California

What's wrong with Californians? They keep winning all of the NASCAR races, and that's probably upset some of the locals!

Exactly. The heat felt good for a change. I guess if you were working it in it'd be different.

Extreme summers = swimming, boating and barbeques!

Cold here in the winter= get out the sweatshirts

Super Target, Walmart= keeps the taxes down

Heavy traffic= haven't seen it yet but haven't had to leave Huntersville yet either.

Californians=good people so far

yankees= go Red Sox!!

SUVs blocking your view of the road= I've seen more p.o.s. farm trucks than suvs

rising taxes = still 2/3 less than what we were paying

cost of living= about the same

you will LOVE it here= We do!!!


Sorry nctarheel, but all the things you see as bad I see as good.

Mark
