Congrats to you country- Sounds like she's on a roll-She ought to go ahead and try to get a 2nd job while luck is still with her. That would leave you a bunch more free time for fishing.
I know what it's like to miss home so bad your heart aches. Even when where you are is beautiful in it's own ways and has lots to offer. I mean ABQ aint' no slouch when it comes to scenery and things to do, but it's not your home.
I love Tennessee, it's beautiful and loaded with history, but my "home", where I was born and raised, will always be west of the Mississippi.
