And assorted lost bachelors and lost temporary bachelors.<br /><br />Then we finally stopped moving in '73, so 'Home' actually coincided with a reasonably permanent physical 'home' address. Then 'Home' shifted when I got married. Sure, we went down to 'home' to do extended family, but we always returned 'Home' to our new 'home.'<br /><br />But then again, I've been accused of being weird, so, well, my interpretation of the various meanings of 'home' may not apply to the rest of you.Beanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293778848879361153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-22910185020542230172019-11-30T10:34:14.336-08:002019-11-30T10:34:14.336-08:00Very very frightening, indeed.Very very frightening, indeed.Beanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15293778848879361153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-5152632863588904952019-11-30T10:03:48.756-08:002019-11-30T10:03:48.756-08:00I tried to stay put as much as possible during my ...I tried to stay put as much as possible during my career.

I missed out on the "home" experience, but on the other hand I saw stuff that most of my classmates only read about. It is a trade-off.MrGarabaldihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05768774166065615995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-92019831541550371722019-11-30T08:30:21.493-08:002019-11-30T08:30:21.493-08:00Every moment, every experience is unique.

So the get-togethers aren't difficult to get to. Although, the much needed rain did slow the arrival.
