Since you mentioned golf, I was wondering if you've been to Myrtle Beach or Kiawah, too?

my hometown, Portland, Maine.. is the biggest city in maine, Home of The Tate House, Longsfellow House, Old Victiorian Manison, Portland Sea Dogs Stadium, And Portland High School (my alumni mater) is one of the oldest high schools in the US. Portland used to be the captial of Maine, but it was changed to Augusta because the governer decided they wanted a more central location for the captial.

beautiful coastlines, Casco Bay Bridge, used to have the Million Dollar Bridge, which was destroyed to make room for the casco bay bridge. That sucks, IMO!

We also have Back bay cove, which on a foggy day, is gorgeous and you can see the birds that fly around there. Beautiful.

I could give more info, but I'm going purely on memory here.

lol of course I don't care about the schools anymore because I graduated, but I care about the children, I don't want the adults to make children to feel like overcontroled...

yes I have, and Hilton Head. If I lived there and didn't have to worry about money, I'd golf every day of the rest of my natural life there.

I hail from a tiny, unknown hometown of about 250 inhabitants on coastal meadowlands in New Jersey where my paternal family have lived for many years (since 1700s). The main industry at my village is shipbuilding, agriculture and fishing. Nowadays, a lot of people work for one of the two State Prisons in a neighbouring town. This prison lies on the huge expanses of land which was owned by my great-great-great-great-great-grandfather.

Four years ago, I moved to Utah and currently live in a suburb southwest of Salt Lake City. I love the mountains here, but do not appreciate the inversion layers in the winter, or the recent layers of smoke from all the bushfires here in Utah. I love hiking in the mountains here. The recent Deaflympics was a great fun here as I volunteered full time for it. I only wish that SLC wasn't too far from the East, because it makes flying to Europe (or to Asia) expensive.
