Born and raised in WI but have lived in Central Florida for the last 6 years.
you sound like my hubby. He was born and raised in WI but he left for college in FL and never turned back. We went and visited WI last month and it was the first time he was back in like 6+ years.
@DHeckart I'm from Iowa also (Okoboji area) but am now in South Dakota so I guess I didn't go too far. I'm about two hours from home. I moved for my husband. I miss home, though.
I too hail from Illinois, but I'm more West Central Illinois. I also find it adorable that fellow Illinois folk just automatically relate themselves by how far they are from Chicago. (I'm 4 hours-ish..) Probably closest to @biokitty42 since she mentioned the Peoria area.
Grew up in central PA, currently live in MD outside Baltimore. Had a few years after college where I lived in NYC and northern jersey, but moved here before E was born.
glad to see i'm not the only military mama-to-be who has a tough time answering this question. originally from connecticut, but husband and i recently relocated from san diego, ca to memphis tn courtesy of the navy!
Ohio!!
@Groxb- I'll be there next week with my family for vacation. Anything we should be sure to do? (Current plans for me pretty much involve relaxing by the pool/beach)?
Fun! Welcome!
My favorite restaurant is called Low Country Backyard. It gets a huge line/wait at dinner time and they don't take reservations, so get there early (430). www.hhbackyard.com
The BEST ice cream is at Pino Gelato in the Wexford center. Heaven.
Rent bikes - there are tons of company's to choose from. The island is all bike friendly.
Go to Coligny Plaza. It's kind of like our boardwalk. Lots of fun shops and places to eat.
Hope that helps!

Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. It's been a scary week for my city (hence me being inactive for the past week, among other reasons), but normalcy is starting to settle in.
It's so interesting to see where everybody is from!
