@loswhit asked on his blog:  Where Did You Grow Up?

We moved here when I was 3 1/2 in 1971, right before my little brother was born.

They paved the road some time around 2000 I think? And my dad had the driveway paved shortly after.  They still live there today.  About 5 acres of land.  The big area to the left of the driveway was the garden.  At one point, the “front garden.”   It takes a good solid day of mowing with a riding lawnmower.

We never had cable.  My parents STILL don’t have cable.  In the industry terms, it is a “home not passed.”  They’ve been talking about getting satellite for about 5 years now.

Seems like it’s out in the sticks, yes?  It’s about 25 miles SE of downtown Atlanta.
