The Hairs


Well, it's official, the Hairs are leaving us! Actually, one already has. Will left for Utah Sunday morning, leaving Caitlyn and the girls here while he gets a job. I am still trying to tell Caitlyn she can leave at least one of them here, but she won't!
It is funny to me that in this day and age with all the technology and everything that in some ways we seem to be going back to the way thing were in the 30s and 40s. When Caitlyn and Will first came to live with us it seemed like their situation of living with parents was unusual. As time went on we heard of more and more people doing this.
Also back in the day people would go far away to find work and send money home to their families. Separations were not that uncommon. It seems to me that if you really step back and look at society it is very cyclic, it doesn't matter how much technology or modern the times seem there will be times of plenty and times of famine. I for one hope to out live this time of famine.
Good luck in Utah Caitlyn and Will! You had better skype us!
