My ancestor emigrated from Ireland in 1773 to make a life in America. After several generations my people appeared in Oklahoma, Sooners in the homesteading rush. Thence to Kansas, then Colorado. Prove up the homestead, sell, move, homestead, sell, move, homestead, etc. In 1989 we moved back to New York State and bought a 300 acre hill farm for $216 per acre, and here we remain. The thrust of this message: I don’t anticipate emigrating to Ireland any time soon, or Greece, Portugul, Spain, or Italy, for that matter. Those are good places, but this is a good enough place for us. Thanks for your efforts.
Keep on sl;ugging, Ashvin, you’re doing a fine job!
