I am a displaced northern living in the south. I long to be back among my own kind and have found there is still prejudice against we "Yankees" here. One of my defenses to prejudice is informing the southern that since we won the war, I've come to keep an eye on the south. When I first moved here, I was sick for a month from the water. That's when I decided that this is a different country, like visiting Mexico where you're warned not to drink the water. I'm a retired Probation Officer with many interesting stories to tell. I love animals and have 3 dogs that keep my husband and I quite entertained , as well as busy.
