Yes Sir, but there has been sorta of a burn out since the long election. You come up with something interesting and something we can jump on, we will come. :yes:
You sure haven't been talking much yourself have you. :biggrin: :salute:
Hard to talk much when you're a newbie. ;D

You are here. That is new.
Nasty twisters in Oklahoma over the last couple of days. That's new and definitely not politics. :no:
Yes thats so sad. So many children gone and so many still missing. I saw on a news program they were talking to a woman. She said she was holding her dog then he was just gone. tThen suddenly a little dog crawls out of the rubble.It was hers a fab reunion.Made me cry.
Well let's hope more of those reunion stories happen over the coming days. That said, more twisters are possible for that same area again today. They can't seem to catch a break.

But at least we know when a hurricane is coming by several days.
And the West coast is out, Earthquakes.

That won't save your house from being destroyed.

That's true, but it will save me from getting killed.

That's a distinct advantage!

Yup! ;D
I wonder what the safest states are? hmm Maybe I should research that .
Utah has had the fewest natural disasters since 2000. (Photo: Jupiterimages/Comstock/Getty Images)
Utah is the 12th-largest state and has had only two natural disasters since the year 2000, making it the safest state in the Union. Although Utah has a varied climate, it is largely considered a desert. Its natural disasters include severe storms and flooding. While avalanches are not declared as disasters, they do occur in Utah with some frequency.
So I guess we all move to Utah.
Actually, the Appalachian Mountain area is pretty immune from natural disasters too, save an occasional flooding incident.
If you move to Utah, you have to put up with the Mormons. ;D
I'm moving to New Mexico. No Tornadoes, no Hurricanes; the ground may move around once in awhile but hey, it does that here too!
And I can go to Red River and see all the snow I want! :smitten:
....and Forrest Fenn's treasure is out there too. :biggrin:

That should keep me busy, since I won't be dodging tornadoes or hurricanes. :biggrin:
Just remember to begin where warm waters halt. :yes:

:wink: I'll take the Appalachians. I love those mountains. As a girl I used to spend a lot of time in the summer climbing the hill that was at the back of our house. Couldn't see the sky from the kitchen windows - just the hill and trees. Like most hillbillies, one of my legs is shorter than the other. :treehug:

Meeeee, too! Our oldest graduated from Appalachian State in Boone, NC this year and it was a bittersweet day (for several reasons) -- but, we loved our family weekends in the mountains!
For anyone who remembers kiminnc, this is also where she settled down and started a family with her husband. Their daughter just recently turned 2, I believe.

That's pretty area, and quite a ways away from where she was living if I recall correctly.
Is Boone in Watauga county? That's where Kimmi lives now. Her and her husband just bought a new house, and I am pretty sure she said that this is the final move for them. :yes:
Yes; Boone is in Watauga County.
:cube: <<<< This is what I'm supposed to be doing...the first and the middle.(I'd rather be doing the third)..so I didn't look it up. LOL
That's why I took care of it for ya'. ;D
