Born and raised myself in WV. Left when i was 19 to march in Uncle Sam's legions for a few years and never went back.
I'm now a diehard Alaskan for the last 24 years.

Slowly but surely creeping north... I might make an exception in my usual train of thought there..... NH, born and raised. I've seen 48 of the 50 (Alaska is next on my list) and could never bring myself to leave. I'm 20 minutes from where my mom and dad were raised, three hours (give or take) from my "home". George

Born and raised in MI, moved to 'Occupied VA'(north of the Rappahannock) for 11 years, got tired of being a damyankee and came back home to MI. Much happier back home except for the lack of decent BBQ.

Arizona, born and raised. Lived in NM, CO and CA. Regretted it every time I moved away. Even regretted moving to Southern Arizona from Northern Arizona. I never say never, but I hope I don't need to leave again. Wouldn't move for double my wages, as long as my wife didn't find out about the offer! Sycamore
...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....

Not me . . . Born in Nebraska, lived there until I got married and we moved across the river to Iowa for 7 years before moving back to Nebraska. Lived within 75 miles of the hospital I was born in until 9 years ago. After 50+ years in the upper midwest, we moved to Arkansas with my wife's job. Still own some farm ground in NE . . . does that count?

Slowly but surely creeping north... I might make an exception in my usual train of thought there..... George Oh, wow! I've been almost, sort of, but not really given a weak, non-definitive, suspicion-laden (with undertones of warning) endorsement by a Coos Co. boy? I'm humbled. This flatlander knows how huge that is! Are you sure you've never heard of a guy out of Twin name of J. Staples?

When I was born, my parents lived in Payette, ID. There was no hospital there, so I was born a couple miles away in Ontario, OR. I've never lived in OR, though, being a life-long ID resident.
