    WOW Neelie! There are a zillion bazillion gallons of water in the oceans of the world. Can it be done do you think? What does it take to desalinate? Great plan.  And helping farmers dependent on things that are undependable is also a great idea. Thank you for your reply and Happy Thursday! :)

    If I had a million dollars, even ... I'd buy up a bunch of the old, decrepit, "drug houses" in town and renovate them into "first time" homes for decent, hard working, low-income families.

    What an AWESOME idea Walt!  That would most definitely benefit the entire family. Give kids a sense of permanence and safety when they are the most vulnerable and needy for it. Give adults something to be proud of and work hard to keep up. Give parents the pleasure of knowing their children have a safe place in which to live and grow. I LOVE it! Well here's to that day m'dear! May it come soon! Thank you for your reply! :) This post was edited by RosieG at July 25, 2019 7:38 AM MDT
