To everyone who lives in or around Auburn, kiss the ground.

I left Auburn due to a family job relocation last July 2009, to move to Peoria, Ariz.

We had lived in Auburn for 11 years, and we loved it so. Never take your home or city for granted. Enjoy every minute. We really miss you all.

Living here in Arizona, oh my gosh, the heat is so bad, the people are not as friendly, the drivers are terrible and every house I think has a cactus in their front yard.

The place is huge, overpopulated.

So if you get upset with your town, stop and remember the grass is not greener on the other side.

In fact, we do not have any grass. The entire area does not have grass. Now the golf courses do.

One day I hope to return.
