I can relate to that basement story MWBW. My daughters were born in CA and we moved back to Madison where I'm from, after I divorced their Father. They were about 8 and 10 at the time. My oldest was extremely frightened by tornados (don't have those in CA either) but she found out the basement was her friend; we had alot of tornado drills that summer and she spent alot of time camped out in the basement.

After you divorced their father? That's kind of a blunt way to put it.

How's that? In our case someone had to be the plaintiff.
I take it you're a Pink Floyd fan?

Maybe you could promise her a winter vacation to somewhere warm every year? But still, be careful about moving back; it isn't the same as visiting.

Virginia is getting to crowded, unfriendly and for the most part lacks everything that I miss about Growing up in Wisconsin. I know our kids would love it and eventually she would as well, but right now having a hard time convincing her. I was just seeing if anyone had a similiar story or a great smoke blowing story that would make the sun shine and the waters part!!!

 Hmmm, you Wisconsin boys are all the same- my husband is quietly trying to put the wheels in motion for us to move back, too- he's from Germantown, I'm from Chicago. I know he's sent a few resumes up there, but I won't react unless and until I have reason to!!!
