[ttfn2]

I'm Ca born and raised! I spent my high school years in a town called Oakhurst at the south entrance to Yosemite. Really beautiful.

Living in Lakeland, FL only 45 minutes from the world. Originally from Warwick, RI. I have been down here for a little over 8 yrs and I love it. RI is nice, and miss my family terribly but would never leave FL willingly. My blood has thinned out way to much to survive the winters up north.

Born and raised in Arkansas. Thank heavens Beauty and the Beast is finally making its way to Little Rock. No more long car rides to far away cities.

I guess this is as good a place as any for my first post. This place is absolutely huge with so much to look at. Hopefully I'll make my way to chats in the near future. Can't believe I didn't find my way here a long time ago. I love it! Now to figure out how all these message board options work.....

I'm from Staten Island, too. Aside from being the subject of a custody dispute between New York and New Jersey a long, long time ago, the Island is also known for being the home of the world's largest landfill (which is now closed, thank goodness). It's also the home of Historic Richmondtown, which has one of the (if not THE) oldest colonial one-room schoolhouses left in the country. Not to mention the famous ferry, a Tibetan museum and a lighthouse that holds some distinction which slips my mind right now. It's also possibly the last place in NYC where people still own horses, cows, chickens, etc. The farmland is disappearing fast, but some folks are still hanging on. All in all, it's a nice place to live, although in the 48 years I've lived there, it's become WAY, WAY overcrowded.

I pretty much have the entire state covered:

Born: Scranton PA
College: Wilkes-Barre PA (with a 6 month stint in London UK)
Law School: Pittsburgh (GO PENGUINS!!!)
One brief summer in Philadelphia
Currently holed up in Harrisburg PA

I once seriously contemplated moving to Denver but changed my mind. I guess I just couldnt bear leaving the state!! LOL!

I'm living in Bristol, CT, just around the corner from ESPN. Originally lived in Wisconsin, and moved to Michigan and upstate New York on my way east.

Welcome Xevious!

This Philly girl has lived in PA all her life. Technically born in Kingston, PA - but have lived in Philadelphia for most of my life. I currently live outside Valley Forge National Park. Would like to move to Orlando, though!

 

[goofymom/pop]

I am from Mentor Ohio which is about 1/2 hour east of Cleveland. Mentor likes to boast that it is the home of James Garfield. We are right on the shores of Lake Erie here and the weather changes by the minute.

Was born in Altoona Pa and lived there until I was 10. Then moved to Ohio where I have been ever since. But I have to say "Once a Pa girl always a Pa girl". Most of my Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents etc are still in Altoona.

**Hey Sanfran join us at our next pin meet. We had a blast in Lorain a few weeks ago. And we can use all the NE Ohio pintraders we can get.

[MadStrawberry]

I was born at the Great Lakes Naval Base in Great Lakes Illinois, lived in Waukegan, Illinois for 9 years and moved to Norwalk, California. Lived in a few other towns in the same area until I got married and then went to Bellevue, Nebraska (hubby in Air Force) and then to Anchorage, Alaska. Then it was back to sunny California where I am now in Fullerton.......15 minutes from "Disneyland" Don't plan on going anywhere else, I kinda like it here.

Newport born and Newport bred and when we die we'll be Newport dead---Newport News, VA that is. We're smack dab in the middle of Interstate 64 between Richmond & Virginia Beach. My city is known for Newport News Shipbuilding and we build big boats - aircraft carriers and such. Jamestown, the home of a certain Indian maid and John Smith is just to the west and there is a load of historical stuff around here for fans of colonial America. We are 45 minutes from Busch Gardens Williamsburg, voted the most beautiful theme park in America and which is stuffed full of roller coasters too. Used to get really annoyed at those tourist at our home park that would compare it to Disney "out loud" but now I'm one of them!! Miss the mouse every day I'm away!!

PS to lovingthemouse - We've visited Springfield and love it. The Basketball Hall of Fame rocks!
