where have you lived

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

where have you lived

Post by Tractor107 »

Okay this is just to find out if everybody's stayed in the same place all their life or if theyv'e moved. I'm a military brat and I've moved plenty of times. Although I don't like moving I think...scratch that...I know that God is using my dad. Where ever we go he meets new people and so do I. The Army may be tough but it has it's ups and downs.

I'm also a military brat and have moved everywhere. I think it is a lot of fun though. My family loves to travel and see different places.

Well...I'm not a military brat, but I have moved about 6 or 7 times. Hopefully this will be it for a while. :)

I've moved 4 times in my life...all within the state of Virginia. Eastern side twice, central once, and now we're on the western side for the second time. :) I'm just happy that we haven't had to live in Northern VA. *shudder* Big cities... :noway:

I feel your pain. We lived in the central virginia area for a few years. When we first got there it was woods with a few stores, now it's built up to be a small city! I hate passing through there now.

I am no Military Brat, but I've moved my share of times. This one coming up will be... *counts* near 23, methinks. :-s

I just need to visit 4 states in the USA, and get off the continent and I'll have completed one of my life-long goals. \:D/

Yes, as my subject states, my dad was moved to Alaska. It was my most favorite spot to live. We lived there only 3 years, but we did everything, like hunting, canoeing, hiking, and panning for gold. My most favorite moment was going hunting for moose wigth my dad. Moose are huge!! They stand about 7 feet tall (even the females) and they can easily walk through deep snow. Snow is the best part of Alaska! Having snow on the ground from November until March is awesome! My favorite thing to do in the snow was to sled

I've moved about 13 times...and lived in 5 different states. And no, I'm not a military brat, as most people ask when I tell them that. I've lived in a variety of environments... from a huge ranch that my dad worked on, to a small town of 1800 people, to Phoenix, AZ \:D/

I much prefer the country and/or small towns :p

I used to live on the other side of the city from birth to when I was about 3.

Then we moved about 10 minutes away to the house that I'm currently living in. I had my 4th birthday only a few weeks after we moved. \:D/ This June, we will have been living here for 11 years!

God really has blessed us with not having to move multiple times.

My parents moved when I was a mere 9 months old, and after that I lived in one place until I went off to college.

We lived in Quebec but moved to where I currently live when I was young.
Since then, we've moved a bit, but have stayed in the same state. I personally like moving around, as it's exciting to see new places and meet new people. \:D/
So you lost your trust,
And you never should have.
No, you never should have.
But don't break your back
If you ever see this,
But don't answer that.
In a bullet proof vest
With the windows all closed,
I'll be doing my best
I'll see you soon.
