message 223: by Angie (new)

Angie (seren-lucy) Kia ora! I live in the very south of New Zealand (the small country to the east of Australia and in the Pacific Ocean). The land of sheep, dairy, and the All Blacks! For us, summer has just begun and the sun is shining. Unfortunately, the earth is once again quaking just up the road in Christchurch. I am a primary school teacher and am making the most of the six week break to read, read, read.


message 224: by Nicolette (new)

Nicolette (cocopuff09120) | 68 comments Kel, I understand seeing as I'm from Iowa. I find most of the state boring, but I love Des Moines! I've never been to Ohio but I imagine it's a lot like here.

message 226: by Courtney (new)

Courtney Bowman (captivatedbywords) | 6 comments I am from Lee's Summit, Missouri, it is just a little south of Kansas City. It's not much to other people, but its home, but what it is sounding like I should be living in Oregon, because I love rain. I think the reason that I love rain is, because it hardly rains in Missouri, especially in the summer time.


message 227: by Dennis (new)

Dennis | 17 comments Hey Courtney! I lived in Lee's Summit for about a year or so and I liked it there a lot.

Really? I like it here, but that could be due to the fact it is the only placed I have ever lived. The downtown area is my favorite place to be.

Are you saying "Really?" because you can't believe someone else here lived in Lee's Summit or that I liked it there? :)

I lived near the golf course and Paddy O'Quigley's which I'm sure is something different now!

Hi Courtney! I haven't made it to Lee's Summit yet, but I'm living in KCMO now. I love the area! I'll have to try to make it south sometime soon.

I think I am saying really, because people give me a blank look when I say Lee's Summit. Not sure if I have heard of Paddy 0'Quigley's.

You should! It is nothing special compared to KCMO, but it is nice. I love Downtown KC, and you will more than likely run into me at the Nelson.
