Mountain Homes

raiderzrevenge04 asked:


Im orriginally from a small town in OK, and my wife from a middle sized town in FL. We currently live in a growing city in Sebring, FL. The city we live in now is primiarily a retirement city. My wife is in the medical field and has an opportunity to get a traveling job that would bring us to Mountain Home, AR for at least 13 weeks and possibly more. We only have 3 days to make this decision, so we want to find out as much as possible about the place. We like to do some things, but spend alot of time just hanging out at home. Here we like to go bowling, or to the pool hall…..Anything like that there? We like to go out to eat some…..not Micky D’s and stuff. I mean comercialized or hometown sitdown is preferred. (Chili’s, Ruby Tuesday, or mom n pops kind of places) Is there anything to do here? Im a substitute teacher that works with pre-k and k-5 ese students. I would like to do the same there, but Im not sure about the education system there. Any info/help would be appreciated!

Between 1974 and 1989 the mountain at Bournville, Blaina, Abertillery, Gwent collapsed inward due to subsidence of old mine workings causing a landslide, with everyone being evacuated from their homes. Subsequently, the school and several houses were pulled down, with the council buying the remaining houses and the inhabitants given alternative accomodation. This was a little later rectified by the mountain being stabalised, which cost millions, with people returning back to Bournville, although several properties had been demolished. That is all I know! I should like a fuller explanation of events, dates, etc., if someone out there can let me know. I now live at Bournville and would like to satisfy my own curiosity.
