If You Can’t Leave Them, Join Them

Just when we thought the college-obsessed editors at the New York Times couldn't find another topic to write about, they published this piece about a popular new trend.  Parents are moving to college towns, presumably so they can attend hockey game and do their kids' laundries (although the NP suspects that they actually want to save on the rising cost of empty nester support groups).

Mr. NP and I think this is a terrific idea.  In fact, we have already identified the second home we will purchase should CJ happen to be accepted at Penn. 

We see this real estate find as the perfect place to spend our golden years – and it even has a pool table.
