OH what the hell, I don't mind typing it again, too. Born in North Dakota; raised in Colorado (Western slope) and Wyoming (the state); moved to Granville, MA, then Northampton, MA, then Mystic, CT; then, back to ole Why-Oh-Myn, soon to leave it, again!

Rabbitrunning...my ancestors settled in Boulder County and my bro used to live in Boulder. Did you have anything to do with the library there? We did a concert there three years ago last spring and he worked there at one time. Long before that, we used to go visit my grandparents in Denver.

My business partner back east had a degree in linguistics. It used to drive him nuts that he could not pinpoint what made a Colorado accent what it was...

I was born in Detroit and still have close ties to my French Canadian/Irish/German Detroit ancsestry, so I have a general idea of the location of Barrie, Ontario.
I lived in Wisconsin from the age of ten to 21, so that's what I call home.
I've lived in California since 1973, but I'm still a Midwesterner.

Rhode Island, birth to age 9 1/2. Suburbs of Washington DC (Montgomery County, MD), to age 21. Tulsa, Oklahoma to age 24. Maryland's little Antarctica (Garrett County), to age 37. Gradually moving eastward in West Virginia ever since.

I'm not crossing the Potomac, though. And since, right now, that's the only thing separating where I am from the state of Maryland, I guess I'm stuck in West Virginia (Shepherdstown).

I was in Barrie once... Spent a month around there when I was about 12. I don't know how beautiful it was. Looked like Minnesota. Even the frogs looked the same. Went to a truck pull or something like that. Most boring vacation of my LIFE.

I bet it's nicer than I remember.

But, and I say this for LH and hesperis, that area of Ontario had some of the most spectacular mullet-headed greaseball breeding grounds I've ever encountered ;)

Well, it's been a while so I will repost this. I live on Gun Lake, in the Yankee Springs State Game Area, nearest small town is Wayland, Michigan. Nearest large town is Grand Rapids, Michigan. Nearest very large city is Detroit or Chicago. Both are about the same distance for me. I was raised spending my summers and major holidays with family in the area between the wee villages of Parnell, MI (named for an Irish Patriot) and Grattan, MI (named for another Irish Patriot). Some of the county names in the state in which I live are Wexford, Roscommon and Clare. I guess I had better stop but the Irish influence in this state of the US is huge and I haven't even begun to tell you about it. Another thread.

I don't know about "mullet-headed" although I seem to have dated a few local greaseballs! They seemed to be rather red in the neck, too...
But you know, if LH cut his hair, he'd be a classic example of "mullet-headed greaseball". Caw, caw!!!

Parson....Welcome to the Mudcat!!! Are you gettin' rich or has all the gold panned itself out. (Been through there a time or two)

Yeah, I'll hit it again........I live in Bremen, Ohio, about 45 miles southeast of Columbus in the center of the state. I was born in Tuscarawas County over in the hills of eastern Ohio and moved to the 'burbs of Columbus at age 12. Went to Berea College in Kentucky and came back to the Columbus area. At age 30, I went to work for a company that moved me a lot and if I wasn't moving, I was flying around the country somewhere. In the process I lived in Somerset,KY--Chattanooga,TN--Cincinnati,OH--Charlotte,NC--Chicago,IL--Nashville,TN--Atlanta,GA....where I married Karen, quit, and came back to Ohio........How I wound up in Bremen is beyond me, but its a nice little town with lots of trees, brick streets, 12 streets altogether, no traffic lights, and a village oddball...which turned out to be me.

Hey, you guys, be careful with your blue clickys. Somebody left out the closing quote marks in a link, and locked the thread. Quotes aren't needed if you're doing just a simple link - but if you use quotes, you have to both open and close them within the link. I fixed the offending link, but won't identify the guilty party.

I'm from Mayne Island BC ( 1/2 way between Vancouver and Victoria Pop. 600-800).We have 2 stores, 1 gas station, 2 hotels and a school to gr.8 (High School by water taxie to Saltspring Is.) Lots of talent, good musicians and singers, and a great theater group. Very peaceful and quiet.(especially now that the tourists have gone away!) Worst thing about living here is relying on the BC Ferries for transport. I have spent "many years" waiting for ferries. Check out www.mayneisland.com (our community) for a better idea.

So.... when are each of you going to organize a gathering for your neck of the terrain?

To submit your location, just contact Pene Azul at Mudcat Resources, see Quick Links at the top of the forum page.

Lots of names here that I didn't recognize, but then I am only here 6 months. If you're new, welcome!

Born in St. Louis but grew up in West Africa, which I still think of as "home" in the sense of where am I from. However, I have now lived in central VA since 1985, and consider it "home" in the sense of where do I live - and plan to live. My genes are 75% Eastern Europe, and 25% "American" via (by name) Hughenot France way back in 174x, and (in the interim) a Cherokee woman 6 generations back. I'm also half Jewish and half Quaker: Mom grew up an ethnically Hungarian Serb in Yugoslavia, and was liberated from Auschwitz the day before turning 16. Dad grew up a Philly-area Quaker with a Russian mother, conscientiously objected to WWII, then went to France to write about Existentialism. They met in Paris, soon after the war.

No, Mrzzy, that's not nearly enough. You must write the whole book. I mean it. That was way too condensed. Leaves me breathless for the whole story. Please. Write it.

Born in Viareggio on the coast of Tuscany, lived in Florence until ten years ago when I moved to a town nearby, Barberino di Mugello, well known for the long queues in the motorway, for its delightful Tortelli di Patate and for the tradition of the "Maggiaioli" (May singers".
All this in Italy, of course...
peace.
