Kentucky. I was born and raised in Detroit but my parent were both from the mountains of south Western Kentucky.
We used to vacation on my grandpaws farm.
My wife is from Kentucky too.
Detroit became do bad.
My wife said, I wanna go back to Kentucky.
Do I said, I always liked Kentucky. Let's go.
And so we moved to Kentucky.
My wife had been disabled for years with Arthritis.
We moved here When I was 59. At sixty I just couldn't work anymore so I Applied for my social security& got it on the 1st try.
Do We're retired and love our new home town. London KY.

My Manny was born in Kentucky. I am trying to remember where, but he was raised in North Carolina.
I was a Navy Brat, mum and dad served for a few years. Dad was from the West Coast, mum was from New England. I was born in DC and then we moved to Washington. They had a nasty divorce and then mum moved me and my sister, Anna, back to Maine where I grew up.

Moved here a couple years ago and ran into Manny, who moved here for his job. :)

Ah okay that is wonderful to hear, the Cheshire Pisces. I guess I just got confused because I was not aware that there was a city in Kentucky called London *nods* but now I do! You learn something new everyday

Wow that is a lot of traveling on your end too, Clair Voyant

My mum is from one of the suburbs out of London (Dad is from Arizona), so as a kid we did a lot of flying back and forth during the summers to spend time with family over there! ^-^ But other than that we didn't move around a lot. :)

Oh wow, that must have been fun to travel back and forth between two countries! At least, I imagine it to be!

It was fun to get to know my family over there for sure! The flights were a crazy time for young kids, but we got used to it. Because it meant a summer of awesome fun with cousins, and coming back with accents so thick that none of our friends back home could understand us. It was awesome! :P

Flying... can be stupid and stressful, but it gave me a way to get to know my English family in person, at a young age, and for that I'm so grateful to planes! :) It gave me a way to get to know my grandparents before they passed. <3

That sounds lovely. :) I imagine a good amount of traveling in my life, especially with Manny's family in the south and mine scattered.

I'm so thankful as well that my granddad got to meet Becca before he passed - but he never got to meet Soph. :( But he got to meet one of my two girls.

Could driving be a way of going with traveling for you, Clair? :) To avoid planes?

No, not an option. But that's life.
Manny will understand my panicky behavior during the traveling part of our travels.

Aw, darn!! Do you have any way of taking anything natural to try to help you calm down?
My mum haaaaaaates flying. Like with a passion. xDD I'll have to ask her what she's found to help her - she told me... and I promptly forgot.
Bad daughter I am. xDD LOL

I have OCD-like obsessive thoughts when I am flying. Illogical thoughts that I know make no sense but can't get them out of my head. If I don't do this, the plane will crash. If I don't do that, it'll be my fault we all die. If I relax that means I don't care if the planes stays up... I know it's crazy, but the thoughts bombard me when I am flying.

Thankfully, Manny was diagnosed with OCD himself... so he knows what those thoughts are like. So when I tell him I'm having those thoughts while we travel, he (though his own OCD is not connected to travel) he is compassionate. He knows that panicky feeling.

I'm so used to the insanity of airports and air travel that it's just become part of the norm. (that's what happens when long flights start at a very young age).

Aww! :( That sounds stressful Clair! :(

It's very stressful and exhausting... but landing in a new place, seeing new people and things... I CRAVE that. I want to see the whole world. Manny just came home from Japan. I have always wanted to go to Japan; my parents met there (Military sent them there).

Traveling is fun and getting to see new places! We've not done much traveling since we had the kiddos - we did take the one trip over to England when Becca was 2 1/2... oh I can't remember it was awhile back. The years have started smushing together.

In a couple weeks, Manny and I will have been together two years! Time is so weird! You blink and it's been years!

I promise, you'll blink and the girls will be off to college!

I've been over the US, and all over England in my summers over there.

Clair: Oh I don't doubt it. Mum was questioning the other day how I'm almost 30.

WOW CHESHIRE! That's incredible! :D Work? Or just adventure?

My mum still chokes up every birthday. Next year will be big for us.
I was born four days before mum's 25th birthday and next year, I'm 25.

It's rough for mom for me too because Carlie would have been 30 with me this year. My birthday is a struggle for all of us.

Both. I loved being a seaman and was good at it too.
And I loved exploring new ports and revisiting the good ones.

I can't imagine a pain worse than losing a child... even if that child is an adult...

@ Cheshire:
Were you in the navy?
