We are more like you, and claw at our brick three story pretentious home trying to get out. You see, with every community there are issues, but now we have people who think they are above treating others with respect because they have money. We are beer and cheese people living in a wine and caviar society. Although, I get along with others I cringe and walk away every time the 'bashing' begins.

He has a set that has seen the local course three times when his boss insisted that he attend the once a year engineers' outing. We are the kick back on the patio types as well. It is a little sad that some people spend their entire lives hoping to get into an exclusive group of some kind. I say the more the merrier. Come on over and pull up a chair. If I run out of places on the patio, I have some bag chairs I can pull out. :-DBecca Dalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09854661507227735148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9182324694661837287.post-75216617086403745812010-11-15T07:07:38.304-06:002010-11-15T07:07:38.304-06:00I would rather sit around a camp fire with family ...I would rather sit around a camp fire with family and close friends.

I could go hide in another room to concentrate, but I'd miss him.
