whiterock Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I have lurked around here for years. I am on some other forums as well. I am a divorced, retired school teacher living south of the DFW Metromess on what remains of the farm I grew up on. I have two grown children and 4 grandchildren. I have 2 degrees in Agriculture, but also taught English, history, and special ed over a 31 year career. I may not have much to say, probably just keep lookin and readin, but now and then I will have to give an opinion on something. Ed Link to comment

PureCajunSunshine Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Welcome to Mrs. S! I think you will enjoy it here as much as I do. I love the way a lot of the threads here evolve into many new ways around old problems! Sometimes, threads get a little off track, but keep reading, because sometimes the juciest fruit is buried where you least expect it! Mais cher! Don't miss out! Welcome to one of the most progressive "all-purpose" preparedness/survivalist sites on the Internet. Be sure to check out the for-members-only sections downstairs! --Sharon Link to comment

BiscuitMaker Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Well Ed we live in the same area---the Metromess I love it--I couldn't say it better myself. I live north of Dallas, but I am looking to move around the Weatherford area. Hope to garden there, and mybe I could ask you some questions sometime. We all try to learn from each other. Living on the family farm must be nice. If you have been lurking you know we have a lot of fun. Hope you stay. Link to comment
Snowmom Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 and I'm sure you will love it as much as the rest of us love it here. Link to comment

whiterock Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Thanks for the welcome, folks. I was born in Waxahachie and live about 11 mile west of there on the escarpment, the front of the house drains to the east, the back to the west. I can see the tall buildings in Ft. Worth if the air is clear enough. My little home town of Midlothian is growing fast, I grew up 7 miles south of town, now town is less than a half mile from the front fence line, city limits anyway. Just voted in beer and wine in the last election. Weatherford is about an hour away, depending on traffic and the chose route. I try my best to stay south of I-20. I was an Ag teacher for 9 years or so, quit for more reasons than one, mainly to have time to be with my own kids. Ed Link to comment
