Our House is a very, very, very fine house!

First, I apologize for the long time between posts. My family has been sick with the flu for over a month. No time for the mom to sit and blog! My time was filled with pots of soup, and tlc galore!

My family live in the "west bank". We live in the Benjamin region on a not so small yishuv -"settlement". Funny, this place has been in existence for thirty years. But a Yishuv it is.

Strategically, we are able to see Ben Gurion airport, Tel Aviv, Petach Tikva, Shoham.

We live in the most beautiful surroundings, the hills of Shomron are surrounding our mountain. We have a forest, and beautiful vegetation surrounds us.

Our son attends the elementary school here, walks to and from by himself. We shop at the market, attend the library, the synagogue and have been making friends.

What's the point?

The inmates running the asylum are willing to give this area away to the terrorists who will undoubtedly be shooting kassams at Israel. The EU, who can't control their own population, are offered the opportunity to gain control of this area. nuts. absolutely nuts.

My house is lovely, we have what we need here. Space, a garden, friends to fill our Shabbat table.

We have to travel twenty minutes to get to any main city center- which is no bother at all. It's 35 minutes to Jerusalem and 45 minutes to Tel Aviv. What's the rush? I love our idyllic life. We are happy here.

Now talk has turned to evil. To give this place away is a crime. If they have no place for those from Gush Katif? Where are we 200,000 Yesha residents supposed to go?
