Greetings from Burnt Chimney, Virginia near the old mill.

Hello to fellow Mint folks!

I'm retired (64) and been a Linux user for a long time (since 2004) but new to Mint. My favorite was Ubuntu and then came Unity. I wasn't me. I went searching and went the gambit of distros and finally settled here. Like cinnamon and it just fits for me.

I am raising my 3 year old grandson (not something I planned to do in retirement but the Lord will provide strength.) Also I am head elder of my church and we have no pastor at the present so that keeps me very busy also.
My wife is still working part time so a lot falls to me. She is not into Linux so she sticks with Windows. I gave up windows years ago.

Even though I use Linux doesn't mean I know a lot about it. I still get things hosed up pretty good. I will post problems when I can't find an answer in the forum or elsewhere.

My best to all you folks,

Don
