Ridley. My area was pretty bad when I left in 1979, the last time I was up there was about eight years ago. I really didn’t like what I saw, a lot of the people I grew up with were either dead, in prison, or physically falling apart just partying on. Not all of them, some went on to be good family people but it reassured me I made the right choice when I was 17 and hitch hiked to Florida for a fresh start away from the elements that surrounded me up there. I retired three years ago from a natural gas utility as a pipeline inspector. I read the news up there occasionally and just shake my head, I’m living on 30 acres out in the woods now and loving it - except the heat and hurricanes!
