@tessiesmom26 It’s the best one! Though I could be biased since I worked there in high school. MH and I met while working at an amusement park, we kind of coaster buffs
Born and raised in NJ- Jackson/six flags for the couple NJ peeps. Moved to SC for college and fell in love with a Charlotte NC native and so I’ve been here since 2013
@themrscole Omg! I lived in Jackson for about 8 years of my life. Went to elementary and middle school there. Maybe we “know” each other.
I was born and raised in Michigan and that is where I still live! I love what some of the other states have to offer, but I really love the change of seasons here.
DH and I are from MI. We moved to the NW Chicago suburbs a month after getting married. We've been here for almost 11 years now. We plan to move to AZ within a year or two. We're done with the -50 with windchill winters.
@jennak210 I often dream of living in a place with real seasons, but then we get a few weeks of cold in Texas and I’m done. I cannot handle winter. I’m all about moving somewhere warm.
@wannaflickone The seasons are gorgeous! We love it here in the fall, but by January we're ready to leave.
My entire family moved from MI to SoCal (where my mom's sister and that side of the family lives) so that gives us even more reason to move out that way. My sister and I are super close and we can't wait for the day when we live within a few hours of each other!
Currently hailing from Atlanta, GA. I am an Army brat, though, and have moved around my whole life. I have the itch to do it again so who knows how much longer we will stay here

@babybrain2018: Where in Canada? My husband is from the greater Edmonton area and we lived there for a while! (I know it's a huge country, but the ONE time I didn't ask because I didn't want to look like an ignorant American the other person turned out to be a cousin of one of his best friends, HA.)
@TheSouffleGirl hey that's super cool!!! I'm in Winniepg. So probably never got to meet you guys! But aweaome to meet someone on here who lived up here, even for a while!
I have lived in south Florida for the past 10 years; before that Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Washington and Colorado (birth). So I’ve been around lol. I would love to move back to the west coast but my husbands family is all in south Florida so we’ll probably stay here until it’s under water
