Becky… totally cracks me up. you are the first person i’ve ever met whose been to Atlanta! and I was there in 69-71. although just during the summers. in those days you couldn’t travel the road in the winter. don’t know if it’s still the same. My mom and step dad owned the Hub restaurant and bar. which it appears is still there! in those days it was the ONLY thing there. I used to get put to sleep on the pool table in the bar at night. Or on a little bench off to the side of the bar. My mom would close down the pool games and pille coats for me to sleep on. then they’d carry me home at night. One of my fondest memories is waking up in that bar to the sound of my moms shot gun going off. she was breaking up a fight between "minors and hippies" on the fourth of july. they’d all come out of the mountains to drink for the holiday. ahhh the memories. very funny…
I live in the rural area of a very small village in the Land of Lincoln, just a few steps away from the village where Abe Lincoln spent his young years of his manhood. The capitol city is just a few miles to the south of my doorstep, with Peoria being just a few miles to my north.
We have two acres of rolling hills in a forest of trees. There are 6 deer which frequently bed down on the farthest back hillside on our property. One time my granddaughter spotted a flock of 14 wild turkeys pecking away in our backyard. Possums, raccoons, coyotes, squirrels, rabbits, fieldmice, skunks roam the countryside. And, we even have a small fox who is known for stealing meat from the grill apparently without getting burned! Nature living at its finest. Comfort of a home built among the creatures and critters.
