I will be leaving Pittsburgh tomorrow afternoon, the first time in 13 years, to head home for the holidays. I am very happy and apprehensive at the same time. I am excited to see family but am worried it will have changed so much that i wont recognize it. I will be heading to southeast Texas to a little town called Batson. I want to wish everyone here at my online family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Andy, I know how you feel.

Earlier this year I made it back to Michigan, first time in over 15 years.

Some things will have changed. Some things never do.

Hope you enjoy the trip.

Andy, have a safe trip and enjoy your holiday in Batson! I had a great uncle who used to live there, so Bear 67 and I both know where it is in case we have to come rescue you.

Merry Christmas to All !!

Have a safe trip, Andy - I had to look Batson up on Google Earth! Born & raised in Houston, but NEVER heard of Batson! And 'Little' just about describes it! I know you will enjoy the stay back on the Old Sod. Cheers!
