<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 1878646, member: 23"]My mother grew up in the Depression and worked in shoe factories that started closing in the 60s so I grew up being very, very thrifty. My kids grew up being thrifty. So far, the shut in hasn't been difficult or unusual for us because we're doing what we always do. As far as travel, that won't change. When I was five we lived in the country, but there was an airfield nearby. Every time I saw a plane go over, I wanted to be on it to see where it was going. As soon as I was an adult I began to travel. Then I met my husband and we started taking youth basketball teams overseas. That was in 1980. I love being at home, but I love the adventure of going to new places and meeting new people and learning new cultures. When we travel with the kids, they stay with host families for ten days, not in hotels, so they get immersion in whatever country we visit. So many of them have come to us years later to say it made a huge impact on their lives.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
