I have lived in south dakota for over 20 years.  I grew up in NW Iowa so I never got very far away from where I grew up. 

I live in Augusta County, Virginia.  I have lived in the area for most of my life, and last July I bought a two-acre property within a mile of the farm on which I grew up.  It's good to be back home.

Just curious if there is any other Texas folks on the forum?

Like to get an idea where folks are from when posting on forums…..

 

I live in North central Texas.  I've been here since 1982.  It is very dry anbd hot this summer, but I'm keeping cool by doing the chores early in the morning and late evening.  During the day I make my  cheese and care for my 2 year old granddaughter and 9 month old grandson.

Dance as if no one is watching

I am from Maine. Just south of Augusta. We live in a small town that my husband grew up in. I grew up in the next county over. I am new to this site and I already love it, so I made it my homepage.

I am happy to see that I am not the only Mainer here. I look forward to "meeting all of you".

   we've been in St. Louis for 20 years…but we're both from Illinois.  Gosh,  big difference in the garden results,  that's for sure.

   We are hoping to find a 2-5 acres something in Mi or WI  close to chicago…because my sister is helping to finance  and she lives there !   PLUS  ,  it must be on a decent sized lake…because joe loves to sail…so many CITR's  live in MI,  but Joes grandpa and cousins lived in Wis…so who knows…anybody know of gorgeaus lakes in either state ?

I'm currently from western West Virginia, most recently from a farm in Northeast Tennessee in the Appalachians, before that from Boston, and before that from central NC….

I'm from the Cincinnati, Ohio area just a few miles from Kings Island.  I can't seem to go a day with out Chickens In The Road.  I have learned so much from this site and from the 2011 CITR Retreat.  Just wish I lived closer to some of my adopted chicken sisters because everyone here looks at me like I'm crazy.  They do, however, admire my new found skills but continue to shake their heads.  Yep, I should live in the country where people would understand me. 

I live at the most western edge of Erie Colorado.  Just where small town meets country, but not on a farm, in a subdivision.  Any more Colorado folks?  I was born in Dennison, Texas but went to elementary school in Tyler, Texas.  My Dad moved us to Colorado in 1963 to start up his own business.  I went to middle school and high school in Boulder, CO then migrated to the south to attend Oklahoma Christian College in Edmond, OK.  When the kids came along we moved back to Boulder to be close to family.  Now we live about 8 miles east of Boulder and love the view of the mountains.  I found this site last fall and love it, love it, love it.  I have learned so much.  Everynight when my husband gets home I show him a new recipe I have printed to try, or a new tip I have learned.  Am trying to get the courage to go alone to the 2012 retreat.  Maybe I will get there and meet all my new online friends.
