Chris, I had a chance to visit Milwaukee a few years ago and I absolutely fell in love with the vibe in the city.

I live in Michigan, the southeast corridor, about 15 miles north of Detroit.

I too would like to add myself to the "I want to get to Oregon" party.

I live out in Oregon, and it's absolutely lovely. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to leave.

message 118: by Jessica (new)

Jessica Smith | 10 comments Currently I live in Memphis, TN but originally I am
From a tiny little town in Mississippi called Arkabutla. Population probably less that a 1,000. Only real thing that people know the town for it our lake the arkabutla dam. It's so small we don't even have a school we have to drive to a neighboring town to go to school. While I was in high school I'm 26 now they closed the small
Bank branch that was located there and the reason was not enough business. Which I have always found humorous since it is such a small town what did they expect! It was a great town to grow up in since there was very little crime so you could go outside at night and the only thing you had to watch out for was the wildlife. My family had a huge farm there and we had lots of animals too.
