Where you from?  Represent where you from, ho!

Just curious as to the Golfhos membership's national/international distribution.  Be a little general if you're weirded out about saying your location.


Clive = a little north of Charlotte, NC, USA.

Food service operations at that college.  I drove out there, saw how utterly isolated it was, was shown the sagging old TRAILER they'd provide as my free housing ... and got back in my car and left.

I'm hoping we can keep the debt-load under a billion then it'll be a huge success.  However the covered stadium that will house the opening ceremonies recently had the roof collapse due to a tear from the weight of the snow.  Thinks are boding well methinks!

Don't know her personally, but she lives up at the 'pointy' end of Australia.
It's a nice area up there.... lots of great beaches, golf courses, and National Parks.   It's pretty much a tropical region.

The only thing is all that sun and warm weather sometimes seems to have melted their brains.... ;D

Not likely. We have a running public bond account with money designated to buying them there foothills to keep them free of development. I believe when it was being pushed we actually said something about avoiding the fate of SLC and Denver.

Our initiative has something to do with waiting for the Wasatch Fault to cut loose whereupon everything on the foothills will be in the City Creek watershed.  It's a bit iffy for a master plan but it keeps taxes low.

Small world.   :)

During that era I lived NE on East River Road south of 37th street, west of N. Broadway. I lived on 9th Street near what was Northrop elementary school from 1968-1978.

I graduated from JM in the spring of '83, went to UW-Madison and lived in WI until 1991 (with some time in NY). Moved to Mpls area after that.
