    i live in the very beautiful mountains of North Carolina...

    i grew up in the piedmont (Lexington to be exact, on the outskirts of Winston-Salem, cancer capitol of the world.)

    i went off to college in a small town called Cullowhee that is waaaaay in the middle of the mountains an hour at least away from any big city(Asheville NC, an hour away, is where we go if we need a big box store (except for the devil among all box stores, walmart, there is one right here in our tiny college town..)

    That is where we met, bought our house and still live today!

    I was born when my parents went off to college in a small town called Cullowhee. :) I grew up at the foot of the very beautiful mountains of North Carolina in a little community called Green Creek then a couple of years in Rutherfordton, North Carolina. When hubby was in the Air Force we lived in Mississippi, Texas, and England. Now we are back in NC but a county east in a TINY town called Lattimore.

    Lived there for 6 months when hubby was in tech school at Keesler. Wasn't sorry to leave - the mosquitoes almost ate me alive there!

    Born in Sandusky Ohio, Grew up in Milford Michigan from 3rd grade to age 37 then moved to Sharpsburg, Ga. for the last 14 years. I love the weather here in Georgia. I have to admit that my first few summers here I thought the heat would kill me but now I am used to it and I love it.

    I will always consider Long Island, New York my "Home". I've lived in central Florida for the past 11 years but am truly a New Yorker at heart. :flowerforyou:
