Requesting Information on Housing in Grand Forks

[Sparco]

Thanks very much, Mikey. I have gone through too many a/c ' s here and am tired of it. Maybe Im the kind of person though who cant be comfortable anywhere, but I sure am more at ease and less stressed out and itchy when Im in cooler temps, Im hoping my move and transition to the extreme cold temps will agree with me also, Im not getting any younger, but I am flexible, Ill keep that in mind about the locale up there and the wood stove info, I used to have one of those when I lived in Alabama and loved it. Once again, so much thanks and appreciation for all your help. This forum has saved me so many desperate questions, I rely on it constantly. Great thing this internet, I cant imagine what we ever did without it! Everyone have a wonderful weekend wherever you live!

oh, one thing I also wanted to mention, my home keeps getting reoccurring visits from black gopher snakes, they come out here like crazy when the weather begins to get warm again, I live near the marshland towards the intercoastal and its another phobia I have - snakes! they are good for eating rodents and insects but these are now starting to nest in my garage under my car wheels, its always something and mothballs and all the remedies dont run these buggers off. Im tired of it. the other day when carrying my laundry out I stepped on the darn thing, and nearly fainted when I turned around and saw how huge he had become since last summer. I am actually beginning to recognize one from the other they are that frequent. snakes, who needs them! hope they arent abundant up your way either!....thanks again great, people!!!

I grew up in Rugby, ND (North Central NoDak) and the only snake I ever seen their was the common garter snake, a non-venomous snake that is typically very docile in nature. You will find some rattle snakes along some of the rivers and probably in the badlands. Anyway, Iv'e never heard of North Dakota having any kind of a snake problem. If you like snakes though, you may want to check out Reptile Gardens in South Dakota....

Mikey what are the "badlands" just curious, sounds interesting...no thanks to the snake farm though, I dislike snakes intensely, they leave their old musk all over my car pads I have down for the oil leaks, damn nuisances are all they are... we have Ross Allens institute down here, Im not a reptile fan at all, but I do enjoy the Florida Fightin Gators football team!. thanks again for great info, need all the help I can get.

You're fine. It was a simple mistake. Just in case anyone is curious, you can only see the posts of your own that were deleted. So rest assured that if you have a post deleted, you aren't the only one who has ever encountered that.
