We can't get salt cured ham, so I order it from Smithfield. If you are in the south, you are lucky. For spiral cut, I just grab one at Sam's Club. They are good and not to expensive.

Denver isn't west.....
I will be moving there soon and, sad for me, it is so flat I could hardly believe it. It reminded me VERY much of Nebraska. And the mountains are sooooooo far off in the distance. I would have to say that I would consider Denver mid-west, not geographically of course but sure looked that way to me when I was there. I like living right next to mountains and foothills in SoCal and Tahoe.
But it should be a VERY NICE place to VISIT!!! 
Have a safe trip 
?? Wyoming not out west?
I have been to Tahoe, driven to Yosemite and on the trip this summer going through the Rockies so do not think where I will visit will be all flat but then again my idea of a wonderful trip is scenery and animals and should get a dream trip again this summer. I said my departure from Denver, going through several states before leaving out. I hook up with an escorted tour and just have the time of my life. Went on same to Alaska last year. What a blast!
Only 10 here in west Michigan.
Windchill is -15 though. And snowing to beat the band to boot.
west florida
3.41 a gallon.
$3.41-3.45 here in West Texas. I have been
checking out yard sales for a bicycle. Not just about gas, I need to loose about 50 pounds plus all these short trips to the store is hard on the vehicle anyway.
denver is most certainly west and is not flat...
I lived in and around Denver for 3+ years - it is not flat at all and it is most definitely WEST..........just not as west as the west coast. Chicago is considered midwest (Illinois).
some people are just geographically challenged....*LOL*
My daughter is at VT and lives in West AJ.
With her guardian angel watching over her, my daughter is fine. After the first shooting, she was released to go to class and was walking toward Norris Hall. The police told her to go back to her dorm. She is in lock down and hungry. What a sad day for the VT community. Please pray for the families who lost their students.
West coast is all expensive...
So you settled back at home, 13K! WOW I would never settle back in Cali... like you said it's way too expensive and the wages (at least what i make) definitely don't keep up with the cost of living. I have found in the South the living is sooooo much more affordable, but then I have to think of the pros and cons like the weather (never been in a hurricane, they kinda scare me)... but the people are absolutely wonderful! at least everyone I have encountered was so nice and polite, again nothing like the west coast. I just visited Atlanta when I was in NC two weeks ago and fell in LOVE with it. However, it's a bit big for me but I am curious to know more about it... just as an option. Do you mind if I email you directly? Thanks again for your insight!
20 here on the west side of Michigan. nm

Are we living in the Wild West?....sm
I wonder that the police do not take more action against him.
Your mother has now to live imprisoned with a shotgun next to her bed?
She should make him institutionalized, declared incompetent and the property should become hers and yours.
I live in West Texas
Where I used to work up in West Chester, PA - sm
in one of the neighborhoods behind this shopping center I worked at, was this huge victorian house on a corner. They had it painted similar to this but it was about 4 or 5 different colors, tons of trim on this house. I thought it looked pretty wild. Don't know what the neighbors thought but it did make it really stand out. I used to go for a daily walk on my lunch hour and would walk by it almost every day. I applaud the owners for doing something original and not following the pack. I live in a cedar house now, we stained it (not supposed to stain as the wood was this special type that did not need staining, but it was all moldy and gross) and the former owners had a cow over it when they found out. The house still looks great, no mold on it since we washed (I literally scrubbed the house down wtih a hand brush) and stained it, no discoloration like before, and the stain has lasted longer than the 5 years it was supposed to too. To each their own!
A very small town in West Texas
I live in an 890 sq foot rock house. I am guessing at the sq foot actually. It is close to 900 but not quite there. It ihas 2 bedrooms, 1 bath. Metal roof. I live close to the schools. I live 2 blocks from the local hospital. I just applied for a job there in fact. I worked 8 years for a big 300-bed multispeciality hospital that was 35 miles away. I left because of the climbing gas prices and I thought I needed a break from the office politics. I started working for an on-line transcription company and for some reason just cannot seem to produce the lines or make half the money I was making at the hospital. I have been here 6 months already. I applied to another company to try my luck there and they offered me a job but I read in the paper yetserday this little hospital here is hiring. They do light transcription, filing, I forget what else it said. The best part is I will have benes. As I was applying a nurse recognized me and was telling me about them and they have improved since I worked there 10 years ago. I hope the pay has as well and I hope they still like me. LOL.
I'm with you. I live in west Michigan. I am more than ready. nm

No, west coasters shouldn't have to wait to come to this board. Again, do not post

Just returned from FL - west end Panama City beach. email me with any sm
questions. We are considering buying a unit at the place we stayed - very family friendly, gorgeous weather, beautiful blue beaches. I can send you pics, even, if you'd like. Affordable if you drive down. Love it and can't wait another day to return for a week in July!! I LOVE THE BEACHES IN FL!!
