No place like home

My wife and I live in a modest three-bedroom, one-and-a-half bath home. Recently, I combined our gas and electric bills for the past year and divided the result by 365 and was surprised to see that our total energy cost was $3.65 per day.

I’ll bet people in Minnesota or North Dakota would love that.

When you see all the hurricanes, floods and wildfires in other places, it makes me believe there’s no better place to live than right here in the Bluegrass.
