 How did you wind up where you are living Survey

Boy I wish knew as much about my families as some of you do. Have no idea how long any of my family has been in the US and not 100% sure where from. Based upon what I know all from Great Britain.

I live about 30 miles from where my Daddy grew up and also his Mama and Dad and up to 50 miles from where my Mama grew up as she moved some due to her family being sharecroppers a few years.

There was 5 of us children, all three girls ended up miles away with one due to disability and the other to thanks to marring Military. Us two boys knew enough to live one each side of our Mama and did so for many years. Now I have moved about 5 miles from there and my brother about 1 mile.

I am blessed my two girls and their families live within 10 miles of us and eat Sunday dinner every other week with us.

My wife, well we now live on land that was her great granddaddy and less than 1/2 mile from where she grew up.

I have enjoyed all areas of this great county have been able to visit (the country part not the big cities) and believe each would be great in it's own way to live there. But it is true, home is where the heart is.

I know many who have moved here from up north and find some of their thoughts interesting and find some gave great thought to it and others did so on a whim. Find many find family and friends near by to be cherished as health passes from us.

I am thankful for those who did pick up and move to this land called America.

I live a few miles west of Myrtle Beach SC. Some of you have visited there and hope you enjoyed it. It still amazes me how many people move here away from family, friends and homes they had for years. Have met some who never had visited but sold, packed and came. Guess that spirit still lives. My youngest sister who married an Air Force guy who was son of I believe Navy guy and to him the where is not important it is the military benefits being near and the tax and such. They finally have left his last base in Illinois to Texas. My sister says if he dies before her it is for sale and she is coming home to family and childhood friends. The only two issues with that is where will their one child be and what family and childhood friends will still be here.
