    Omaha, NE

    Henry Doorly Zoo -one of the best zoos in the country and I haven't been there since the Lied Jungle was new (20 years ago!) I'm a homebody and am totally guilty of not visiting things that are readily available.

    College World Series - Okay so this is only 9 days/year, but it's blast

    The Old Market - Collection of shops and restaurants. What's nice is that with the exception of Old Chicago, all the restaurants in the Old Market are Omaha native. Love me some Blue (sushi), Stokes (Mexican), or Zios (Pizza).

    I live in south central Pa. Unless you are interested in learning about the Amish or seeing how Hershey's chocolate is made, there isn't a whole lot to do around here.

    White Lake, MI



    I just moved to this area 2 months ago but as far as I know, there are ski resorts, waterparks, recreational areas, beaches and there's a movie theater 2 miles away.


    There is also alot of apple orchards around here so I will definitely be taking advantage of that in the Fall.

    Michigan, float around between Detroit-Clarkston-Rochester Hills. Everything from casinos, concerts, skiing, movies, malls, etc
    Don't forget about sporting events. Plus I'm about 2-4 hours from Lake Michigan or Huron, which is like being near the ocean but without the salt. Also plenty of inland lakes, so if you know anybody with a boat you can hang out on the water, waterski, wakeboard, etc. We also get snow, which means skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, etc.

    In Royal Oak where I actually live you can hang out downtown, eat, drink, shop, there's pretty much anything you want within about 20 minutes.

    I'm in Reno, NV. We have a lot of hiking in the mountains and desert, skiing is 40 minutes away, as is Lake Tahoe, we have a lot of events in town during the year. Lot of conventions come here thru too. Still it could use more family style fun other than just gaming. Its sort of low key though, I miss the bigger cities sometimes because it can get boring.

    I am a London UK girl who now lives in the English countryside in Dorset England. I am 45 minutes from beaches and 5 minutes from the most mind blowing countryside which is heaven for my doggie :)
    Not much for the younger generation I guess but it is a safe clean and lovely place to live.

    I live in Seattle Everything here sucks. There is nothing to do. Nobody should ever move here.

    I'm sensing a wee bit of sarcasm....

    I live in Weston, Idaho. A town of about 400 people and one zillion cows. There is fishing, cow tipping, chicken chasing, garden weeding and animal watching here. We have one tiny gas station with a pump so old that the numbers won't go above $2.00 a gallon, so they make the price half of what it should be and then you double it and go in and tell the cashier the amount.

    It is quiet and peaceful and you can walk around naked if you want because no one is there to see you.

    Owensboro, KY and there aint a dang thing to do here (if you don't count the bars- not a drinker really) but occasionally we festivals- The International BBQ Festival (not into BBQ or the Beer Garden, so I dont go), The Big O music fest (too many dang people and too expensive to even be worth it), The Apple Fest (too crowded to be any fun), ect.

    That being said, I love this town, wouldn't want to raise my kid anywhere else.
