Childhood years spent in Potomac, Maryland - summers spent in Portland and Seaside Oregon. College in North Carolina, brief stint in Dallas TX then 17 years in Tampa/St. Pete FL. Moved to Conifer 16 months ago and hubby and I couldn't be happier.
born in Kenmore, NY....raised between there and Port Colbourne/Long Beach, Ontario Canada........
....side note, they say you can't go home again....but i went back to Long Beach, after a 30 year absense, for a family reunion. I walked down the beach (Lake Erie) to where my house was, looked up at the neighbors house, and they were sitting out on the bank, waved, said hi to me, and it was like I had never left. looked the same, felt the same, and we picked up a conversation like I had never left. Surreal.
I went back to some places I grew up around in high school in Dallas and they were all gone. The shopping center I used to hang out is gone, as well as a bunch of other stuff. It's like they never existed.
