    We ought to be there about 2nd week in August. The gal I'm staying with is my best buddy from nsg school (went to Our Lady of Lourdes in Camden), lived next door in the dorm, and we made a pact to stick it out together. We did!!! That was 34 years ago. She has the nicest husband, too.

    PS:
    And G'day to everyone else too!
    Cheers from "Down Under". And no, we don't call you " Up over"! :-) We call you "Yanks". Rightly or wrongly, it's just how we Aussies refer to Americans. No disrespect intended.
    Cheers,
    Grace.

    Do we have to put where we live... or where we want to live???? Born and raised in Rochester (rottenchester) NY. Haven't met many who want to live here---will live in Wilmington NC as soon as I win the MEGAMILLIONS or I retire (at age 80) whichever comes first.

    I live in Northern Calif. I did however live in Rochester for about a year, I loved it! But I was really young at the time too so that was probably why. My mother hated it so thats why we didnt last long out there. But I do love California! I dont ever plan to move.

    Where is the 3rd coast? Texas isn't exactly SE or SW. Now I know how my Asian friends must have felt all those years when they had to answer "other" to race questions. :chuckle
