Now that I am 26, I live 5 blocks away from the house where I grew up. It's full of hillbillies, but it's a good place. Almost Mayberry-like.

From: Somewhere near the back of beyond
Born and lived 18 years of my life in north Idaho.

Got married and the hubby joined the Coast Guard, we've lived everywhere since. We're currently in Juneau, Alaska. We plan on making Alaska our permanent home, not Juneau though, we're thinking Homer or one of the other towns on the Kenai Peninsula.

Yeah Buffalo is a sad place these days, as bad as Rochester is, we are not as bad as Buffalo yet... I do always love the people there, nothing like tailgating at the Ralph!

I've heard of it. I was born and raised in New Haven, CT. Father, mother, and sister worked at Pratt & Whitney. Lived for a while in Chesire on Brentwood.

CIA Agent-I'm in military Intell and just left Huachuca in 2003 where I was a Drill Sergeant (if your screen name is any indication of your profession, we may have a lot in common, to include acquaintances). I still have many friends there, and will probably return there next year when I leave Italy.
