Born in Omaha Nebraska, raised/lived all over the state. Lived in Tallahassee Florida for a while, and now back in Nebraska. Nebraska bores me. Far too many uber-vanilla types here (so vanilla it's like licking ice, barely even a flavor) and I feel stifled. Haven't decided where I'd like to live ultimately, but I'm always open to suggestions.

Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, IL. Chicago rocks because we have our own lake front. One of the beaches (Oak Street Beach) has palm trees, you would never know you were in a big city. We have one of the best ski lines, with the tallest building in the USA. We had Al Capone, who was really from Cicero, IL., but lots of mob related stuff. We are also known for out pizza & our governors. Styx, Chicago, Ides of March, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Fallout Boy, Cheap Trick (Rockford), REO Speedwagon (Champaign), Mudvayne (Peoria), and way too many to list are all from the Chicago area.

I was born and raised in Chicago. Lived one block from the lake front for a year and use to walk to Oak Street Beach.
Moved many places in chicago, lived in many parts of southwest burbs Berwyn was one.

Moved back and fourth, to and from Illinois to Michigan, Michigan to Illinois and now I reside in Ann Arbor which I love. People here are more friendlier than in Illinois.

I am 50 and experienced living in two states. So many people here lived in many places but I am not ready to retire in Ann Arbor. Next is Arizona.
