Born in CA. Lived there for 6 months. Moved to Denver until I was 7. Became a huge Broncos fan (Morton, Upchurch, Alzedo, Orange Crush Defense, etc...). Moved to Montana where I lived through college. Moved to Seattle, then Portland for 9 years. Lived on Whidbey Island for a year and now here. Hope I'm not going anywhere until I retire.

Born:  Army base in Tidworth, Hamps.  Long story.  Involves an arsehole bus driver, a petrified corporal, a flat tire, a big dinner and an anesthesiologist with a degree from Grenada.  Lucky to be here really.

Raised:  Salisbury, Wilts. through age 10.  Half my summers in Gorey, Co. Wexford, Ireland (Mum's home town).  Salisbury is a great little town.  Still go back there once or twice a decade.  Gorey is currently the fastest growing town in Ireland due to commuter sprawl south out of Dublin.  We're good for once every 2-3 years in Ireland.  I think I'm doing a solo trip in the spring.  Well, solo other than my 14 little buddies.

Emmigrated:  Victoria, B.C.  for 18 months.  A fabulous place.  I'd recommend it as a great place to live in a heartbeat. 

Emmigrated II:  Kearns, Utah.  I lived on the *feces*ty side of the tracks in one of the *feces*tiest suburbs of SLC.  But I didn't have the foggiest it so it was all good.  Straight A student through 11th grade but then succumbed to the dark side and barely scraped through the final year (dope, dames and deep powder, you know the drill).

Four years in the Air Force... Came home... Yada, yada, yada...  Picked up a wonderful wife, and subsequently two beautiful children, during my stay at Gunther AFB, AL.  We've been in Layton, Utah for the past eight years -- about 20 minutes up the road from Spacey.  Love it here.  Will never completely leave although I do envision summer palaces about the globe in my retirement. 

Concur with Spacey about why it's good to live here.  Social conventions are goofy but if you grew up here you get a handle on how to operate.  The outdoor life in Utah compares with just about anywhere.  If we had a beach (well, one without brine shrimp, flies and stank) it'd be perfect.

Here's the view from my back window.  I never get tired of looking at it.

She says no, but she grew up on a small farm and didn't really interact with any families who were outside of her school or LDS ward.

He's definitely not LDS; Really nice guy about 42 or so.

Hell if Stroh (or any other golfho) makes it to Utah, I'll kick in for a whole case of 3.2!

Uisce- let's get something going in the spring maybe. I've never played Valley View.

LOL.   Thumbs Up

Ooops, responded before your mod.  Sure, I'm up for it.  Valley View is a fine, fine course although it sucks on weekends due to lousy management from the clubhouse.  Anyway, if not there we have dozens of fine options.  I'm in!!!

If someone springs for your airfare, I'll pay your greens fees, but the pre/post round drinks will end up costing more than the greens fees around here.  Wink
