Hi, I'm from the Buckeye State, Ohio! Lived in Cleveland for the first six decades of my life, but have been down here since Jan. 06 and lovin it. I spend my time playing cards, golfing and using one of the many pools to cool off. When I worked I spent many days visiting six states in the Midwest including Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. What a beautiful part of the country, but you can keep the snow and cold weather. If I had known how easy it was to make new friends 1,000 miles from my family, church, community and business associates, I would have moved here long ago.
