I moved away from my small town in WNY when I went off to college. My mom on the other had is living in the same house her parents bought in 1933. She did leave for college, met my dad and had three kids and moved back in the mid 50's so she's not actually been there the whole time. It's just kind of cool she's still there.
Oh and that little town is Alexander. Same place where Pinto Ron went to school. Funny story. I met Kenny at a Raiders game when I lived in Oakland. We were chatting and he asked where I was from. I said a really small town between Batavia and Attica. He said "oh I went to ACS!" I ran cross country with his younger brother. Small world.
