Hillbilly Housewife replied: I'm in Ottawa, Ontario (Canada).
I was born in Germany, in Lahr (my dad was stationned on the Canadian military base)
I grew up in Petawawa and Borden (more Canadian Military bases) and I came to live in Ottawa at 10 years old, been here since.

at least then you,d get a sunny weekend...

supermom replied: Pittsburg, Kansas where it was wonderfully sunny and warm last weekend but stormed and rained here yesterday which really cooled it off - supposed to be 80 tomorrow tho!
Originally I am from San Jose California, but moved to Kansas over 20 years ago, so I almost feel like a native Kansan <oh, scary thought>

MomToMany replied: Hi all! I live in wonderful north-central Minnesota in the huge town of Effie (pop. 92) !! I've lived in Minnesota my whole life.
 "Yeah, you betcha!" as spoken in Minnesotan!; our reply to everything!
booey2 replied:
Hi Tessa, have you always lived in Cambridge, the reason I asked is that I grew up there and was just curious.
ashade75 replied:
Wow!! Did you realize your family makes up 6% of the population!! NOW thats a number!! In my town it's more like .01% hehe.
I have always wanted to live either in the country or small home town. Maybe someday! 
MomToMany replied:
 Thank goodness it's a SMALL town!
I LOVE living in the country! It's SO peaceful and quiet; plus you get to see a lot of wildlife. We always have deer in our yard (DH has to restrain himself from shooting them sometimes. He's the big hunter/fisherman type!).
We're 3 miles from "downtown"; a gas station, the Effie Cafe which MIL owns & cooks for, the bar, and 3 churches! That's pretty much it .
jdkjd replied:
Come on down!! I'm sure with all of my family within 20 miles I'll be able to put everyone up. But watch out, my mom has a tendency to hog babies! 
And no, until I win the lottery I can't help with the tickets. 
Hillbilly Housewife replied:
Nope.... my dad was in the military... I moved to Ottawa with my mom and my brother when my parents split up.... but now, DH's dad is working for DND on the civil side, since he's retired, and his bro is just south of Kuwait at the moment. Other than that, no military for me!
ashade75 replied:
WOW!!!
I would love to experience that life. We go fishing at a lake north of where we live. It usually takes about 2 hours to get there. Everytime we make the drive, DH and I pick out our future home (hehe) (Just for fun).
Last time I picked this beautiful log cabin with a cow farm. I dont know anything about cows but I was willing to give it a try (hehe). DH picked out this little farm with a tiny home cookin resturaunt on the corner.
Someday I hope to move to the country. I love having a large garden and the country air, and the darkness and quiet at night. I wasnt meant to be a city girl.
booey2 replied:
Wow you sure did move around, I guess we wouldn't know each other then because I have been in Toronto now for almost 15 years. I still go back and visit cause I have tons of family there. My grandmother started up a real estate company ages ago and it is still going strong.
Take care.
