She may be County. I have to drive 5 to 10 miles to get to anything
civil. Stores are not close to each other so it would be another of
the same to get there and then do the trip home. Gas is $4.39 a
gallon, here at least.

Where I use to shop around, I no longer do for that reason. The kids
friends all live 10 miles from each other as well. Country living has
it's perks but not for gas.
