Birth Place Of Members!!
Ok Everyone! I was born in Burlington, Vermont and around the age of 5 my family moved to Malletts Bay, Vermont which is about 5 miles away! I grew up there all the way through high school and then went into the Army. Spent most of my time in Frankfurt, Germany as a admin assistant.
My x-wife who I met while in the Army was from East Missoula, Montana so I moved with her to Montana. I then spend some time in Columbia Falls, Montana and then went to Seattle, Washington for awhile and then back to Montana. I have been here for 33 years now and raised a family of 3(2 girls 1 boy).
I now reside in Missoula, Montana with my high school sweetheart Pat and we hope to return home to Vermont some day. We now have a family of six kids who are all on their own an d 11 grand kids. We might find it interesting or at least I do where members jouney to in the course of their lives. How many of you still reside in your birth place or as they say "Where are they now?" Johnny

I grew up in Valley Stream, NY (on the border of queens) till about 14. At around this time my parents had the great idea of moving to las Vagas since the jobs on long island were scarce. The Las Vagas adventure lasted eight months, we all hated it there so we pick up all our belongings again and drove back to Long Island. This time we moved further away from the city. I now reside in holtsville "the heart of long Island". I attend the state University of New York at Stony brook where I am a junior majoring in pharmacology. I "work" part time at Brookhaven National laboratory in the chemical dynamics department.

I'm a born and raised Spokanite. No matter where my life takes me, I always end up back here. Some days are better than others, but I plan on staying in Spokane, WA through the end of time.
 Shhhhh! Don't tell the wife . . .

I was born and raised in Springfield Missouri. I lived there through college. I met the girl of my dreams in the second grade and married her September 4, 1999. We stayed in Springfield until I graduated from college. We moved to Lenexa KS (Suburb of Kansas City) in July and here we are now. We will most likely end up back in Springfield, or a town very similar to Springfield by the time we settle down for good.

This has been great reading. As I kind of expected, several of us have lived all over this great country and some mainly in one location.
I was born and raised in Fond du Lac Wisconsin (about an hour north of Milwaukee)
After finishing tech school, I sent resumes all over the state but got two job offers right here in good old Fondy.
I too married my high school sweetheart and we will celebrate 30years together this June.
We have two daughters, 16 and 19.
We now live about 6 miles from the city in what is known as the Holy Land because it is mostly German Catholics living in small towns like St. Ann, St Charles, St Peter.
As it turns out, it has been a great place to live and raise a family.

Born right here in Portland, lived in Costa Mesa for a year or so when I was a toddler but my Mom got homesick for the fall colors so we came home. Moved to "the sticks" outside of Portland and grew up on a farm. I've lived here all of my adult life as well, except for the six months I lived in San Diego. Like Mother, like daughter, when it was time for the leaves to turn and everything was the same ol' color, I had to come home.  Been here ever since and my husband of 14 years and I are raising our three kids here in Stump Town.

Born and raised in Knoxville, TN. Both parent's families were East Tennessee mountain folks from waaaay back. I lived in California for 5 years, as well as short times living in D.C., Korea, and Texas, courtesy of USAF.
My parents lived in Naples, FL, for several years while I was in school and spent all my breaks from school there.
After returning from CA, I moved to Sevierville, back to Knoxville, then several years in a cabin on the lake near Bean Station, TN (yes, there is such a place!  ), then back to Sevierville 14 years ago. I have no plans to ever move again.....love it here!
