Florence Y'all

We've recently moved back to the states. We're in Florence, KY, which is famous for it's bizarre water tower.

This is a bedroom community to Cincinnati, Ohio.

Apparently Cincinnatians are too racist to live anywhere near black folks, so they head for clan country (Florence, KY; or other clone-ish suburbs draped in grey conformist architecture) to escape even the most remote possibiity that they might actually have a black family as their neighbors.

That however is not our reason for being here; we were set up with a mack-daddy deal in free corporate housing by my dear hubby's place of employment, so it was off to Grey Clone Clanville for us!

Yes indeed, this is the last place we thought we'd find happiness, what with the giant barns-for-houses-that-cost-gawdawful-much-filled-with-folks-who-lobbied-to-keep-the-muslims-out; But alas, we are indeed happy here. My son loves his first-grade class, and I find it very accessible to all that I need.

So never say never. You will definitely then get what you swore you would never have!
