So it would be interesting to hear from any of you ho still live in your hometown and what your feelings are as to whether you re happy that you stayed or whether you wish you would have moved on to ther places. Ken - interesting question. My dad's entire family, and my family grew up in Hendersonville, NC. Most, but not all of us left at college / job time unless we were content working in the mill. Two of my aunts remained in the area, and one has moved back in retirement. My uncle moved away, but also moved back for retirement..... My brother and I both left town for college and have not moved back...... I love the place, but have other retirement plans. So, I tend to use it as a vacation destination as I make my way up to the mountains. My mother still lives there...... It was a great place to grow up and I still read the local paper and keep up with several of my friends, but it is unlikely I will return there to reside,,,,, Of the seven or eight friends I keep up with, only one of them never left town...... The rest of us scattered to SC, TX, SC, LA, the big city of Raleigh, and to CA, AZ, and so on...... I miss it at times, though....
