You gotta be kidding me.

It's Wooster, named after General Wooster, my home town.

Heyyy... (chuckle) I don't go much north of the Mason/Dixon unless I
have safe passage. He would be a little ****ed at me for that as he
has tried hard to educate me in the way of the Buckeye.

I have to say though, that the pictures my sister has brought back
over the years have been incredibly gorgeous. Lush hilly landscapes,
lots of hardwood trees, GREEN vegetation due to rain, etc. It looks
like a pastoral farmland from a book. NOTHING like South Texas. We
have our postcard scene shots down here, but it isn't the rule.

What is BIL name? Might even know the family.

His parents were Ken and Esther Zimmerman. They lived there pretty
much all their lives, and in the same house since they were married.
He passed about 3 years ago, and BIL's Mom is now down here in a rest
home in Houston so they can keep an eye on her and help take care of
her. She is now 85.

There are some fine old names in use up there with the remaining
family, those in their late 70s and early-mid eighties. Uncle Wilbur
(I kid you not), Uncle Orville (I kid you not), Uncle Floyd (yup),
Aunt Etta, Aunt Cotta, Aunt Ruth, etc. Their clan sounds like a step
back in time. And living out there in that beautiful farmland they
certainly move to a different drummer.

BIL's name is Gary, and his brother is Ken (Jr.). Ring any bells?
