Are you still living in the state/country you were born in

I am about 600 miles away from my family..who are in Wisconsin..but I was born in Indiana and now I am in WV

Wow....I like it that way too..having my space:) Do you like Colorado?

Colorado? Wow..I know many people that would love to be in Colorado. Arent there cooler parts there? John Denver sang of Aspen..Is it cooler there?

Colorado is okay. I would prefer to be somewhere more green. I live in southern Colorado and it's pretty arid and desert-like. I would also love to live somewhere there is a place to go swimming. All we have here are public pools or the reservoir which is $5 a day to park + $1 per person using the beach. I live here because it's where I met my husband and he likes it here a lot. He also has a well paying job, so it would be silly to move elsewhere. :o)

Yes, Spanish is the native language in Uruguay, as in most countries of South America. The exceptions are Brazil (Portuguese), Guyana (English), Surinam (Dutch and Papiamento) and French Guiana (French, of course). In a few countries Spanish is not the only official language, as in Paraguay, where they speak also Guaraní (indian ethnia and language).

Yes I know that Brazil is Portuguese.. How is it that you write English so well? Are you using a special software?

Glad you love your native area so well..Is Spanish the native language in Uruguay?

No, it's doubtful that either one of my girls would be able to keep this farm going. My oldest daughter is a veterinarian, as is her husband. Their clinic is in the center of Amish country where there are more farms than around here, plus they have their own acreage and animals. I am the last in my family to be a farmer, sometimes even good traditions have to make way for the new ones.

I wonder if farms someday will be museums of the past?

Glad you are able to hang in there and keep the tradition going. Perhaps someone from your family will keep it going..?

Hey Jay..nice to see ya..Glad you are still enjoying your home town in the UK..what you been up to?

Sorry to hear you had the flu..Strange time of year to catch the flu..isnt it?

I'm just getting over flu, I had it really bad the last few weeks :(

Believe it or not I heard of Cuthbert Georgia..I havent been there but, I have heard of it:

Good for you..Glad you are making a mark on the USA Map:)

Wow that's the first. We're placing ourselves on the map slowly but surely ;)

Well moles away is pretty darn close;) I don't think I would want to be moles away;)

Thank you very much for your comment about my good English. I began my English lessons as a child and have always tried to keep in touch with English through English books, papers and (lately) webpages, so my written English is more fluent than my spoken English. There is another reason too: many years ago I learned that in English there are nearly always two words for the same concept; one of Anglosaxon roots, which is used in everyday spoken English, and another of Latin roots, which is used in more formal written English. People who have a Latin roots language (Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French or Romanian)as their native language find it easier to use the Latin root words than the Anglosaxon root words, so their English may look better than English spoken or written by people with other native languages or even by some people who have English as their first language.

Though I moved from my home town..when I happen to pass through..I always have to go see the house where I grew up..I can't believe we grew up in such a small house.

So you still live in the same state..how far is San Antonio from Amarillo?

I had to look it up on an online mileage calculator. Cool site. It's 444.3 miles. http://www.symsys.com/~ingram/mileage/index.php

Wow, you are in the same town? Do you every travel abroad for a vacation or go away for a small visit outside the city

So ..do you get discounts because your wife works for the airline? I don't think I quite understand the "stereotype"

Oh of course! My wife works for an airline, so we've been to a few european countries, some islands in the carribean and took a trip to the states a few years back. It's not that we don't like visiting other places on holiday, we just have everything we want at home. I love the Netherlands though, we've been to Amsterdam a few times and if I were ever to move away somewhere I think it would be there. I loved America too. I'm more a country mouse than a city mouse and some of the places we seen during our trip blew me away. I felt really comfortable in the states too, I can see how the British stereotype of American tourists was formed. IMO, the states is just like home, but bigger and better! lol

I hear North Dakota is a pretty state..is it? I think I wouldnt mind visiting there some time.

The air in North Dakota is really clear and clean. You can see so many stars at night here! The part of ND I live in isn't really all that pretty otherwise, though. But if you go more on the western side, it's prettier. It's mostly just flat here, with nothing but fields, unless you are in a town.

Where you born in texas or in another state? I have been to Texas and to Arizona and New mexico..passing through;)

I have never been to Brazil but have been to Portugal..IS Brazil an offshoot from Portugal? Since Brazilians speak some form of Portuguese.

Really ..you left your native country to live elsewhere ..Do you like where you live now ..or would you prefer to go back to your homeland

Wow..what time the airplane saves you on? Glad you are still in the same country.

So you live away from home; no harm in that.. Glad you are returning home? I am miles from home; and I dont think I will return back any time soon.
