May 7, 200420 yr comment_80120 Wonderful time growing up in western Mass and southern Vermont. At age 22 I took a job that allowed me drive to and through the contiguous 48 states, most of them many times over. I loved every minute and have a bunch of favorite places and memories. Pacific NW, SoCal, Fla, MD, DC, Chicago, the Nat'l Parks man what a great country!After 8 years of travelling I ended up in another country....Houston, Texas Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/11606-social-poll/?&page=2#findComment-80120 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 7, 200420 yr comment_80121 Grew up in NJ, schooled in Buffalo, NY and then relocated to Arizona. I'd be back in AZ in a instant if I knew I could maintain secure work there.As a result, I'm back in NJ (like to stay until retirement) and then back to AZ.Luckily I have family (wifes side) in AZ to visit on occassion. I suspect the next visit will result in me missing my return flight only to bring a no-rust driver home.I'll be sure to call upon our AZ members to help me recon a vehicle before my next trip...

May 7, 200420 yr comment_80129 Born in Ellensburg, Washington, same as my mom. Parents moved to Seattle, WA. when I was a few months old. Stayed there until age 6, then Dad decided it was time to move back to "God's Country," Okanogan County in Eastern Washington where he was born & raised. He bought a tavern in Oroville, WA. where my great grandfather, an Italian immigrant, had a cattle ranch and a hotel/bar in the 1890's -- the hotel and bar are gone, but the family still has the ranch. When he first immigrated he followed the railroad as it was being built in southern BC (British Columbia, Canada, just 4 miles north of Oroville) with a tent saloon and restaurant. After graduating high school I went to college at Gonzaga University in Spokane, got my journalism degree and moved to Seattle. After five years there I had to get out. Loved the area, hated the rain and traffic. I moved back to the dry side of the state and my old hometown and saved Seattle for visits. Became editor of our local newspaper. Got married to a girl from one town south, bought a house and divorced. I have two kids one in college in Spokane. I bought a couple of Zs and another house (it's either laugh or cry). I live in a log home on the Okanogan River with my dog Sophie. The house has a huge garage (pic attached) for my Z project and is about a mile from my boyhood home and from the ranch. Don't plan on moving again. I talk too much. Take it eZ, Gary.

May 8, 200420 yr comment_80230 I was born in Helena Montana as were my parents and my grandparents. From there to Boise Idaho until I was three and then back to Montana. After high school I moved to Texas for a bit and then back to THE mountains of Montana. I followed that with a short stint in Utah and then Seattle before making my next return to Montana. I moved from Montana to the Detroit metro area about seven years ago. Since I've been in Michigan I have also lived in Cleveland, Oil City - PA, Dallas/Fort Worth, and Boston when work required relocating. Needless to say I do go back to Montana at least twice a year.
