One daughter - public health policy researcher and director of public health policy research - Medicare/Medicaid expert - for a large non-profit organization (6K employees) based in Research Triangle Park, NC - lives in Raleigh, close to downtown. Husband is a state appellate attorney.

Daughter is a school teacher in rural Virginia. Youngest son is a CPA in NOVA. Oldest son works for state of TN.

Son graduated from UC Boulder 3 years ago and is a staff writer / production assistant with a small production company in Atlanta. Has options on 2 scripts and about to finish a third one. Rents a studio in Buckhead. Living his dream. Not making a lot of money but he is self-sufficient.

My older son lives in Northern Virginia and works for the DOD.

My younger son lives and practices law in Houston.

Both love NOLA. Neither saw it as a viable economy.
