It is a very humbling experience, but we are so much better off. It's great for the kids, too. We ended up in the Kansas countryside; very few rules around here, which is the way we like it.

No one has taken the threads over. A fellow called Kartographer has started a survivor (Prepper) thread which has taken on a life of it's own. I wonder if he is aware of Granny's threads... there is much on them that he could use if he had a notion too. I'm pinging him to this one just as an after thought!
We ended up in Northern MN btw...
