I thought I was in a good place now, but who knows?<<<

One never knows, until one lives in an area what really goes on.

Or as I would do today, listen to the towns police scanner on the internet for a month and that would give me a good idea of what I would face.

The only place that I found real and caring/thinking people in the Kingman area, was in the LDS Church and at the Community College.

They are out there, but not near me.

I do hope your new place is a good one, if not, move on, for too soon you will be too old to make another move.

I'm sorry to hear that about Kingman. I keep thinking about moving back to Az. Most of my friends and family are in Phx. and Buckeye, but there's no way I'd move back to the valley again.

I used to hike all the mountains and looking down at the valley, I couldn't help but see Phx. as a whole lot of people trapped by mountains and only a few ways in and out. Not good if TSHTF. Still...I have those times when I miss everyone and Az. Maybe someplace up north?

Real estate took such a hit that I don't think I could afford to sell here and Az. got way too expensive right after I left. I've got some great neighbors now and I've learned to appreciate how important great neighbors are. So different than the walled neighborhoods in Phx.

Your advice about moving before you get too old is good. Also, thanks for TipNut.com! Lots of great info there!! I need to learn how to can veggies. I never paid enough attention when I was a kid and now I regret it. Never too late to learn, I guess.
