WOW! Talk about your melting pot. I am from Boston, MA but I have been living in Minneapolis, Minnesota for the past 35 years. I have also lived in Surry, Maine and I have a ton of relatives in New Hampshire.

Hey, a fellow Canadian. I was born and raised in the Canadian Southwest. (Makes it sound a lot more exotic (and warm and dry) than Rainy Vancouver.) Yep, I learned to rust long before I learned to tan.
After leaving home at 18 to go to college, I lived mostly in the western US, with a couple of years in France for a bit of culture. (And a forgettable attempt to live in LA for a year.)
Now I call Las Vegas home, and have for nearly a decade. (yes, quite a contrast to Vancouver. 4" of rain each year, on average, compared to my homesite, at the base of some mountains, that averaged nearly 100" per year. And yes, I miss the rain and the numerous shades of green that it brings.

Redwood Shores, California (about 25 miles south of San Francisco, 25 miles north of San Jose, a mile west of the San Francisco Bay and 12 miles east of the Pacific ocean.).
Born in a small town near St, Louis, Missouri. Twenty years in the US Air Force took me to Okinawa, Arizona, Greenland, Colorado, Texas and Alaska to live and a lot of other places for a visit.
Following that, lived in Ohio and now California for the past ten years, but planning to see CA in the rearview mirror and perhaps Nevada or New Mexico in the windshield --- real soon.

I forgot to mention that my wife (for 19 years)came from Dover,England when she was nine y'old(1970) but was supposed to have gone to Canada also but her father changed his mind at the last minute before boarding the plane.
BTW, she has no interest in photography what so ever and thinks my obsession with it is over the top but loves the end result.
