Folks buying my trailer house down there. They'd seen it on the website and reached out to me and were wanting to look at it and I felt like they were buyers. The dad had a pretty weird phone/text picture, and since my youngest son was gonna be living with his for about four months I was a little hesitant. Neither of the parents were on any type of social media (nor am I except for this), but we knew they both worked for the GUVMENT. Come to find out they are both engineers like me, except they practice the trade. About four hours in, after they figure out we weren't Russian spies, we find out that he works for the Department of Defense and is a big player in the Patriot Missile project & she works for NASA and is over communications for the Space Shuttle. They were some of the nicest & coolest people I've ever met. The son is a big hunter and an ME student, so I told my son that at least he didn't have to live with a nerd, to which he replied "Dad, at some point in time, you gone realize that yore son is a nerd". Not much here, and very long, but I thought I'd share. RThomas has taken over my account
 
They were both bammer engineers & really took to my bammer wife. BUT, they wanted their son to be a REAL engineer & finally have someone in their family amount to something. Can't say that I blame them.
