[QUOTE="Shari, post: 451906, member: 1848"] My hometown hasn't changed much. My mom still lives in the house I grew up in. They have a gas station and cafe now that weren't there when I left. The corner full-service station closed when I was in high school. This one came after that and is still going. A few houses have been torn down, and a few others restored (most old victorian styles). Nothing new. I do go back to visit mom, and even tho the landscape hasn't changed, the people have. Life has gone on - its not the place that I remember. People have grown up, moved on, passed on. New people replace them in the homes. I don't suppose "going home" works for much of anyone, really. Cause once you're not there anymore, its not "home" anymore. [/QUOTE]
