My doctors have recommended that I try a different climate for my lungs, and my wife has family in Winnie that we're going to visit to see if the climate agrees with me. I would love to meet some people from here if possible, got some Fort Payne for you rockbashers (I have too much trouble knapping to work it) and I might could wrangle up some crepe myrtle or privet as well. Mostly I want the chance to meet people who think like me and have more experience than I do.
It looks like I'll be there the 30th through the first. I'll update here if this changes. If you want to meet, let me know and we can work it out-I even have other stuff that might be worth someone's while. Mostly I figure it would be stuff for knowledge, and that's a good trade for me any time.
