| QUOTE (Annabelle @ 05-Sep-2004, 09:46 AM) | Irish Stepper we use to live in Annapolis Maryland. I like that area. We thought we were going to retire in Severna Park, Maryland and I would have been alot happier to stay there than in Hee Haw Hell here in hot Georgia.
Betweent the tornado's, hurricane runners and hot weather and bugs I'd take Md or Ga any day!
Be good. Glad to see you posting girl! Haven't caught up to you in a while!

Annabelle,
Just out of curiousity, what caused the move down to Georgia?

I live in San Antonio, Tx. It is the 8th largest city in the US, yet it still has a small town feel. San Antonians are unfailing friendly and welcoming. I have many friends who have come here fro all over the country, they all enjoy the laid back, uncomplicated lifestyle.
We have many cultures here. The Latino culture is the most predominant, yet many other cultures had a hand in settling the area. The Irish, Italian, Chezch, German, and French all added their culture into the mix. Our weather features hot summers and mild winters. The city is beautiful, featureing 16th century Spanish missions, art-deco sky scrapers built during the 40's oil boom, a pictursque river, lined with shops and restraunts as it winds through the city, and modern structures such as the convention center, Alamo Dome, and Tower of the Americas.
My parents moved here from Indiana when I was atoddler. I left home at 20 to seek my foprtune in the world. When I moved back in 2000, I discoverted the San Antonio was my treasure.

I live in Spearman, Texas. It's a small town, 90 miles northeast of Amarillo, in the Texas panhandle. POP. 3000. It may be smaller than that now. Alot of people have moved lately. We have HOT summers and COLD winters and lots of dust. Farming supports our community.

For the past 12 years, I have lived in the hills of south central Kentucky. It is a land of some of the friendiest people I have ever met, and the scenery is hard to beat. We moved from Michigan, where I spent most of my life. I was born in Ontario, Canada and moved to Michigan as a child. In Michigan, I lived in Lincoln Park, Taylor, and Monroe (all south of Detroit). While I agree that there is a lot of good things about Michigan....I am a big RED WING fan, I absolutely love Kentucky. My hubby and I have travelled quite a bit in Canada and the U.S. and enjoyed it all, but when we pull into our own hundred acres, the sense of contentment surrounds us and we know that this is where we are meant to call "home".

I had the pleasure of visiting San Antonio last year, apart from being very hot and humid (July) I really enjoyed it. I stayed at the Hyatt for a church convention, I came as the Australian delegate.
I love the riverwalk area, very special.

I live in Greeley, Colorado. It's about an hour north of Denver, not far from the Wyoming line. We are just a stones throw away from the Majestic Rocky Mountains on the plains of the "wild west".

I live inSt. Petersburg, Florida. It's only temporary, thank goodness. It's always hot, and when it's not, it's warm. It's supposedly the lightning capital of the world. Thunderstorms are almost gauranteed on a daily basis for a few months every summer. And as you know, we're prone to hurricanes, so it seems. It's actually a very nice city, and if it was located in a cooler climate, I'd actually like it much better. I live downtown, which is nice. Most things you would need are within walking distance. The waterfront is only a few blocks away.
Next year, I'll be somewhere else, though.
