Where are you from?

I always enjoy hearing about the posters.
Are you female or male?
Where are you from?
I hadn't posted this topic for quite some time so thought I would start it again. There are a lot of new people on board.

Re: Where are you from?

What a nice way to get to know folks here, Grgranny.

I'm a female non-skater living on a beautiful green island in northwest Washington State, (equidistance from Seattle and Vancouver B.C., e.g. middle-of-nowhere and that's how I like it ) Married 25 years this year to a delightful Englishman. Stepdaughters both live in New Zealand. You should see our phone bills, sheesh!

My name is Patti I live in West Virginia near Charleston. I am a registered nurse too Manny...ER, CCU, ICU, and Dialysis but am now retired due to an injury. I don't have any children but love being an aunt to my three neices and four nephews. My favorite neice is expecting a baby in early July which I plan to spoil rotten. I volunteer at the local elementary school doing read aloud and home room mother (aunt?), and also have two Girl Scout troops (cookie order taking started yesterday ). Love volunteering in my community, a great way to meet very nice people.

Re: Where are you from?

I am from upstate NY, but having retired this month, I reconsidering that. I probably will be selling out of NY and moving to CT (from bad to worse as to taxes, but closer to family) I used to be an engineer, working in the field of automated optical inspection and location measurement. As a retired person, I am still deciding what comes next. I have been married 38 years to the same guy, have 2 children, and 2 grandchildren, and love skating.

Re: Where are you from?

Aloft, when my husband graduated from college we had to move to Seattle, Skyway Park, my oldest was born in Renton.
It was the only place in the country hiring engineers at the time. (Boeing)

Re: Where are you from?

...and now they're laying them all off, Grgranny . The corporate hq moved to Chicago area last year. The last time so many layoffs happened there was a sign that read, "Will the last person to leave Seattle please turn out the lights." There's talk about reinstalling it I've heard.

I'm about 75 miles northwest of where you were. Come visit!

Re: Where are you from?

Aloft, I know. Wichita has been named as the city the most affected by the 9/11. Unemployment has skyrocketed. It's really bad.
