An Update
The weather here today is a bit nasty. We have heavy rain and thunderstorms, with temps in the 50's. I guess I'm getting spoiled, huh.
The search for a place to live has begun. I have looked at two places so far. The first one I didn't like much, both for the location and the house. Last night on the way home I looked at a 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath house for rent near GSW (Georgia South Western University). I really liked it, especially for the location. It is a block from campus, and there are numerous public spaces nearby. There is a nice wooded fitness park a block away, with a running/walking trail and fitness stops. There is also a huge soccer field that could be used for kite flying, frisbee, etc. when empty. The neighborhood seemed well-kept and quiet. It has a great back yard, too. It's a little more expensive than we were hoping for, with rent at 650.00 per month. I will see the inside tomorrow, and see if I can talk him down by signing a year lease, or offering to do some work for free. Here's hoping!

Hey, i feel like i havent heard from you in forever! If your rent includes utilities, then you would be paying less than i do now. Thats kind of a sad thought.

Do you find the cost of living higher in GA than IN?
Actually $650 a month doesn't sound bad, but then I haven't rented for 54 years!!!!!
Only $650?! I would love to pay that much in rent. But then again, my sense of reality has been severely warped for the past year and a half. Has Laurie joined you yet?

Yes-I know. . . 650.00 is pretty cheap to rent a house. But given the location, we were hoping for a little less. Americus is actually growing a bit, and becoming a quaint little town with shops and antique stores, etc. so home prices, and thus rents, have gone up in recent years.
