the way you guys describe everything sounds amazing. i dont know how to explain it... its like deep within me i feel out of place, i could only imagine how it is to be out of the city and all the hussle and bussle. no one around here really cares about mother nature or hiking or doing anything out doors. everyone is just to into their own lives and how they can move up the ladder or what kinda car they have or where they are gonna go clubbing over the weekend. i just feel out of place i guess, i dont know... hard to explain.

How are things in your dispatch land tonight?

Morning guys. I'm not to awful bad. My wife and her brother and sister had to take their mom to the ER a while ago. She has fallen down 3 times in the last 4 or 5 days and tonight she fell again and her speech is slurred. HOPEFULLY nothing is wrong, Dr put her on some new meds and she tends to overmedicate so HOPEFULLY that is all that is wrong.

one of these day i will, just dont know when.

Tony, just get outside, away from people. That's where I feel at home. I don't even like being around other people anymore, just let me find a riverbank and somewhere to set out my chair, and I'm good.

You let me know when you come through Tony, drinks are on me.

Tony, I have been on both sides of the fence. Spent time in Manila, Philippines. Tokyo, Japan and Seoul, South Korea. I would much rather be where I can see the stars at night. Just something about being able to walk out your back door and look up and actully see for myself that there ARE stars in the sky.

Hopefully a meds issue. I'll put in a good word for her with the boss in the morning.

haha, i sure will

Tony, I grew up in Chicago's western suburbs, so I know how you feel. Fortunately for me, my folks had both grown up in rural environments and taught me how to enjoy and appreciate Nature.
After working many years in lousy jobs and crazy hours, my wife and I decided that there HAD to be a better way to live! Our income took a big hit, but we wouldn't go back for anything! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Tony, NO! Go to Alaska. They got bigger fish and critters too!
