Thank you VK and John. The gentleman that my Aunt and Uncle (Linda & Jack) bought the place from lived just a mile up the road. For years, if he caught us kids out in the barnyard or side yard of the house, he would sit and tell us stories about his family (he was a White himself) and the house. I'm ashamed to say it, but at the time, I was more annoyed at the interruption than I would be a bit later in life. Thinking back on it, he told us those stories so they might have a chance of living on, as he had no children of his own that were still alive.
Talking about still alive, I spent the better part of Saturday and Sunday at the hospital. Everything is fine, it was a 'false alarm', but sure did shake my wife up pretty good (me too-I agreed to go, so I was a bit concerned also!). Had my first ever stress test. As if going to a hospital isn't a stress test all it's own!
Have a great day everyone!
George
