Hello all! I was born and raised here in the good ole U.S. of A. and am mighty proud of the fact (not that I had any choice in the matter!). I have lived in sunny Southern California for one year, but have spent most of my life in foggy Northern California, the San Francisco Bay Area to be more precise. My father is from Massachusetts and his family has lived in the same area for nearly 200 years. I have been to Massachusetts, New York, Nebraska, Virginia, New Mexico and Minnesota. I crossed this wonderful country by train when I was ten and heartily urge everyone who ever has the chance to do it at least once in their lifetime. It was a fantastic experience that took nearly a week and I saw some amazing sights during that time. For those of you who are thinking of coming to visit America let me wish you happy travels and I hope you meet lots of nice Americans (and there are plenty of us!) and no bad Americans while on your trip! |
