n74tg,

You are very kind, and I appreciate it. Thanks.

That's a fair assessment, I am indeed, comfortable "in my own skin," and you sir, are a very observant man. I like that.

I've got a house that I'm currently selling over in West Pensacola, on the "dirt side" of the road that runs along the north shore of the first branch of Bayou Chico, and like your sister, we (everyone along the street) were always able to watch the practices of the Blue Angels. Pensacola NAS (Naval Air Station) is only about 2 miles from the house, as the crow flies.

It's a great little town, population of the city is ~50K, big enough to have a few amenities, small enough to have no serious traffic congestion and human scale architecture with a wealth of very interesting history behind it, back to the mid-1500's and the Spanish. I've been around, and this is a great place to live!

OTOH, my wife says that I would be perfectly happy living under a bridge, and she's right.
