I live a few blocks east and then north of smokeycat.  But I never wanted to call Anderson my home.

Started out born in Ft. Wayne, my father was in the army so we landed in Germany until I was 2 1/2, then Kansas, California and Utah. sometime in 1965 we moved back to Frankton (where my dad grew up) and from 1969 until 1979 I was between where ever my mom lived (Upland, Marion, Jax Fla) and Frankton.  Moved to Alex when I got out of school, then traveled the US for a short time, back to Jax, then back to Frankton, then back to Jax for 5 years, then back Frankton, then a couple of months in Anderson, then Summitville, then back to Jax for another 5 years, then Nashville Tenn.  In 1994 my youngest son passed away, so we sent him to be buried in Alex where my fathers family and my oldest son is buried (and now my father).  So I landed in Anderson when I didn't feel like Nashville was that fresh start we wanted any longer.  I've been unable to get out of Anderson since I got here. :(
Looks like I've come full circle.

At least to the next county, maybe further...   :biggrin:
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Born at Methodist Hospital in Indy, but our residence was in McCordsville.  Soon we moved to Noblesville for a short time, then to the Pendleton area where I spent my formative years.  In 1972, at the end of my Jr. year of high school at PHHS, we moved to Montezuma, IN where dad had purchased a laundromat.  After finishing high scool in Montezuma (think of the 50's, instead of the actual 70's) I started working for a large pharmecutical company just across the river in Vermillion county.  I moved to Clinton, IN for a while, then Hillsdale after getting married, and finally to Dana, IN.

We had hoped to move towards Madison county by now, but recent economical changes have kept us in Dana for the time being.

Parianne: Lady, if you weren't born with gypsy blood in your veins, I think it would qualify as such by now!   :wink:

LOL, I never had the wanderlust...I just followed the men in my life, or my parents.  Now that I'm FINALLY on my own...I seem to be stranded.  :eek:

North A-Town by way of A-Town, Lafayette, Albany NY, Mt Vernon IN, and back to A-town......you can take the boy out of mad-county but you can't take mad-county out of the boy!

Yeah, something always draws you back.  Wish I was living in Frankton though. THAT'S where I consider my home town to be.

Only if you were planning on doing a little para-sailing about that time. :wink:
