Welcome mindflipper, glad to see another Floridian. I am from Gainesville, about an hour and a half southwest of you. GO GATORS!!!

Stuck in Michigan, Floridian at heart as well ~ Mom grew up on gulf side of Florida, why oh why did she have to move up here and meet my Dad and then stay here?! Actually would prefer the weather in Cali but too expensive to live there! :mickey:

Born in Cali, not far from Hollywood. At one point we lived in a place where you could see Disneyland from the roof of our house, but I never got to go (gasp! :shock: ). Left Cali after 3rd grade.
Moved to Oregon, grew up in a number of different homes all over the Willamette Valley, but mostly near Salem. Moved to Montana after high school, lived there for about a year. Moved to Texas, lived in Houston for about 8 years, then in Corpus Christi for about 6 or 7 years, and have now been back in Houston for the last 8 years. Hoping to stay put until I retire, then move to WDW and be a CM! :mrgreen:

Buckeye born and bred. Lived in Florida for three years, was glad to move back home. (As much as I love WDW, I like winter and snow; the summers down there about killed me.) :P

Here's what I posted in 07:

Coney Island (3rd generation) native (OLS grad). Have lived in Cali. (the Valley), Texas (NAVY, Galveston and most of the deep water gulf!), Florida (Ft Myers, Most of my life. College in Tampa, went to WDW at the drop of a hat, any hat.) Atlanta (different from the rest of Georgia), Now own a home in Chattanooga. We will after the boys go to college, sell and move back to FL.

Didn't know we lose the house! Still in Chattanooga. Have a dream of having a home in Pine Island Fl.

EDIT: I don't know why this helps open wounds?
