Two or three people I liked were afraid I would not stay in Monahans. They were afraid I'd get bored or something and one day just fly away into the East heading back to the Big City. What we're getting to is this. After a couple of years, Val also likes Monahans. There are some negatives.
Prices here are too high.
It's pretty bad when you have to drive to Odessa to shop at garage sales because Monahans garage sales proprietors are too proud of their junk and charge prices they couldn't have gotten new. The best thing in Monahans is the people. Val and I agree on that. No matter what happens, I stay in Monahans. Val is growing grass in a front lawn where grass has never grown before.
