[QUOTE="DDD, post: 251566, member: 35"] I was born and raised in Coral Gables Florida...home of the University of Miami 'Canes! :happy: Yep, we all went to school there although two ended up graduating from other U's. It was a wonderful place to live. When I married husband (my 2nd spouse) I hoped to live forever "at home" but GFGmom ran into problems and coincidentally my husband wanted to move to Central Fla.for business. Bad combo. We have lived in Central Fla. for thirty years. "You can't go home again" is absolutely :frowny: true. The home we sold for $100,00 soon moved up to 250 and now is closer to 750. Yikes. Our income, meanwhile, has gone down the scale proportionally. :blushing: I absolutely love my home town. I spent happy summers in Milwaukee and Minocqua Wisconsin where my Mom's family came from. I do not like where we have lived for three decades BUT I am a Floridian to the bone. DDD [/QUOTE]
