[QUOTE="CottageFarm, post: 1116122, member: 16552"] CB, I get what you're saying. Rural communities have been dying for about 150 years now. Part of that is our own fault. Small towns have never learned how or are unwilling to play the game that bigger towns do to attract decent employers. It's still up to current and future generations to decide what's important. You did what you had to when you were working to make things work and support your family. You excelled at it even. There's a price paid for everything in life and we need to make the decisions for ourselves how much we're willing to pay. You wanted to live a rural life, so to do that you commuted to a decent career, you married smart, and you both did what needed to be done to achieve your goal. Everybody today is capable of those same choices. In some ways your generation had it a little tougher because you had to adapt mid life to a rapidly changing world due to technology that was a fantasy 40 years ago, and today it's all just recreation.
