6. Also PA
I'm now living in Oakmont, PA (near Pittsburgh). I was born and raised in El Dorado, Kansas and lived in Wichita for 13 years before moving to PA in 2000. I was one of the relatively rare Democrats in Kansas and am very proud of sticking to my guns and not letting the Moron-Americans getting me down!

sorry that I missed the chance to meet you while you were here!

This is a town that is in my blood. I keep leaving... and years later returning. A stint away for college, then off to DC, then back... later off to Michigan (Ann Arbor and Detroit), then the Bay Area... now back.

37. It's really changed a lot in the last 30 years!
For the better! I worked on most of the big buildings in town, but I live out of the valley a bit! 10 minutes from town and you're in the boonies here! I have deer and raccoons in my yard sometimes and I caught 12 bass in the river out back yesterday evening! Fishin' is great around here! Pace of living is laid back!

23. Everywhere
Born in St. Louis. Grew up in Fresno, summers in Mt. Shasta. Moved to Oregon.

Then to, in order, Mississippi, Cali, Idaho, Arkansas, Montana then to Oregon to Arkansas to Montana and then back to Oregon (where I've been for 6 years).

With short stop-overs in Washington, Nevada and Missouri.

I think that's all.
