We know there are several from Texas and Minnesota. So, what about the rest of you? What state are you from? NO . . . you may not post: State of Confusion (I'm taking that one) and you may not pick a planet . . . although I know some of you may possibly be from one! ;)

SHO ME (my state) where you are from. . .

Jay DH means Darling Husband. :)


As for me. I was born and raised in S. California till I was 19 and moved to Virginia (Norfolk) for 4 years with husband, then back to Cali till 99 then moved to Washington after Divorce. :D Remarried to the man of my dreams and have lived here since. Trying to get the rest of my family here so we don't have to move back to Cali. Moving to Oregon (Portland) Next year for school and then back up here to Gig Harbor area for a long time. We love it here.

Oh ya! I think I could handle that view! Lived in Ohio in the area that's home of the Longaberger Basket Co. (ever heard of that?). Great place to grow up. Then when I was a freshman in HS, we were uprooted and moved to SW MO. Another great place to live.

Yes Oklahoma is a great state. Like OU Fan said home to some beautiful country side. & yes you should travel Hwy 66 if you get a chance. Not much of it left,which is a shame, but what is left is very interesting.
GO SOONERS, & OSU ( when they are not playing against OU ) that is.

:: Points to his Name and winks ::

Originally born in a small own called Medina in NY. Grew up in Lockport NY just outside of Niagara Falls.

I'd give anything to move back there just that decent jobs are scarce so for now I'm trapped out here in Seattleland.

Nope. I hate here.

If the Dinar pays off in a few years, you can bet the property I'll be buying will be back home and this place will be nothing but a forgotten bad dream.
