One night, Bill Wiggs and I drag-raced using his Blazer in the driveway and me paralleling him in the hay field, a hedgerow between us. Watching him instead of the field in front of me, I ran my Ford F-150 up on a round bale of hay, nearly turning over, but stubbornly pressing the gas pedal to the floor to remain competitive. e hay bale eventually rolled itself out flat, putting me back on four tires, but Wiggs won the race. Stuart Williams le a healthy meniscus in a deep ditch riding a horse one night. Chester, one of my Australian Shepherds, lost an eye to a horse kick. en Maggie, his step- sister, lost the same eye to an infection. I was going to train them to pull a small wagon for kiddie rides, but they always kept veering to the le. Russell eventually moved into the house on the other side of the horse barn, which was not nearly as nice as mine. We had to first figure how to get the snake out of his toilet, as it was shocking to li the lid and find him uncoiling back into the septic tank. In 1991, I bought a real house with a real mortgage and home owner's insurance and HVAC and level floors in the kitchen. I moved in the prettiest, craiest girl you ever saw in 1995. She and I are a couple of years away from having raised three kids, nine dogs, six cats and one hamster in that house. If I had to choose between the four places mentioned herein, I would take the real house and all that came with it, but probably because of those very things that came with it. Still, if any of those three children- turned-self-sufficient-adults ever come to me for housing advice, I will tell them to never underestimate what you can get for $75 a month. 2821 Arlington Avenue, Fayetteville, NC 28303 | www.cdfosterlaw.com CHRIS FOSTER, a Fayetteville native, has over 15 years' experience concentrating in the areas of wills, trusts, estate administration, business/ corporate law, and tax exempt organizations.
