Where is everyone from?

[HisDaughter]

I see this is a really old thread but I wanted to share anyway!  I looked through every single one to see if anyone was from my neck of the woods and only found a couple Oregonians!  I'm from Seattle!  Even though I was born here and live here now, I've been all over.  I've lived in other places in Washington and I've liveing in Ore, Calif, Ariz, Alabama and Mississippi!  Went lookin for love in all the wrong places you could say.  However there's no place like home, there's no place like home, there's no place like home.......!

I lived in Seattle for a while in an apartment building about 5 blocks from the Seattle/Bremerton ferry. It was just a couple of blocks from the unirail to the Space Tower. That was in 1973. Then I moved to Redmond in 74 until I got transfered to Hawaii in Feb of 74. I went back there on a Navy ship that tied up by Alaskan Way down by Myrtle Edwards Park in 1986.

What a small world, eh Pastor Roger!?  I actually live in Bellevue now and work in Redmond.  7 min. from my door to theirs!  It really is so crowded now that everything is connected from Tacoma up to Everett and from Issaquah and the eastside to the Sound! 
Remind me where you are now?

I can imagine that it has changed a lot since i was there. When I lived there it was out towards Bellevue in an apartment complex that looked out over a small lake. I enjoyed going up to Snoqualmie Falls which we did quite a bit.

I live in a small town in central Illinois now.

I think I know the little lake that your're talking about.  I'm sure you wouldn't recognize any place now, we are so over-grown, however Washington is such a beautiful state.  We are surrounded by the Cascades and the Olympics (mountains), we have Puget Sound, many lakes and rivers and of course the tall Evergreen trees!  I love it!  Perfect camping in the summer, which is one of my passions.  At 50 I still like going in a tent and often go alone if there is no one that wants to go when I'm ready!  Single and independent!  That's me!  Well maybe there's a bit of stubbornness in there too! hahaha!

Yes, it was a beautiful area. I spent quite a bit of time on the Sound as I was stationed in Bremerton for awhile.

Hello JACKIEOD,

I see that you are new, so WELCOME!

I think we have several members from South Africa, and it is quite beautiful. I've never been there, but I have seen it several times on television. I sincerely hope that you enjoy Christians Unite, and I look forward to having fellowship with you.

I think that I already posted where I'm from, but I'll do it again. I'm from Lawton Fort Sill, Oklahoma in the far SW portion of the state. Our back yard is Texas.   

Love In Christ,
Tom
