Angie-

Autumn, I grew up on the border of England and Wales in a town called Oswestry (if you want to look at a map) legend has it that St. Oswald lost his arm in battle there and where it fell a tree grew. Ergo; Oswald's tree (Oswestry). This is Welsh sheep country and a beautiful part of the UK. When I was 13 we moved to Northampton (country girl becomes city chick!) which is about 60 miles north of London. My husband is from the US and was stationed over there in the Air Force in the mid 80's. We met at a Metallica/Bon Jovi concert (Monster's Of Rock 1987!) and married 2 weeks later! This Septemeber will be our 20th anniversary! Crazy huh!! I love sharing my story just for the shock value but also it always make people smile. Things like this really do happen! However, we are the exception and not the norm!
Thank-you by the way on your insight into a bible group. I am 'teetering' on the fence about it but want to make sure that the Lord is leading that way and that it is just not just me on a power trip! I wonder what sort of imput we would get if I started a 'Christian Farmgirls topic? Share scripture, testimony's etc. Books we have read. By the way, I love your title 'Discussion Manager' Made me smile.
Hope you have a good week. Feel free to e-mail me to my addy any time.
Angie.

Breaux Bridge?! We stayed at a B&B there that was just lovely!!
Not much to do except relax- but that's what we were looking for!
Good food too. The B&B was an old schoolhouse they moved and renovated- there were about 5 little cottages. Each was a different theme. Very nice place!
Tks for the welcome!

Hi, Autumn! South Louisiana is a beautiful place, in spite of the Ritas and Katrinas! I love visiting there, especially all the old Plantation homes. Wish my Green Acres-style farmhouse resembled them just a little closer! But, in all honesty, I did get a piece of the south with my home -- it's two sharecropper houses put together, taken off a cotton field in Shreveport. So, I'll be happy with the small things! Glad you're here!

Id love to see your Green Acres- We lost our guest house in Rita. Havent had the heart to start repairs seriously.
I keep looking for a spot where pics posted.
I did some on my first few pages but havent seen many others.
Think I'll post one of me-as part of my introduction and maybe others will do the same.
