What's So Special About Your Home Town

I was a Navy Brat, so I really don't have a home town.  Until I was in 8th grade, I thought it was normal to go to a different school for every grade.

I lived in the northwest burbs of Chicago for 25 years, and we raised our children there. 

Now we are in Dayton, Ohio, birthplace of aviation, home of the Wright Brothers.  If you are ever in town, check out the Air Force Museum.  They have some really interesting old equipment on display.

I still don't consider it a "home town", even though we make our home here now.  If people ask where I am from, I use that old line from Happy Days.  When Richie asked the enigmatic Kat Mandu where she was from, and she replied, "...from the place where the wind begins..."

Robmeister:
Mine is special in an infamous way.

I live about 1.5...maybe 2 miles from Columbine High School here in Littleton, Colorado.

Grew up in Long Beach, California....when I was a kid we would watch the L.A. Rams practice at Blair Field in Long Beach.  We'd bug'm for autographs as they left.

Some of you may remember these names...but back then I had autographs (all on one piece of paper) of:

Merlin Olsen
Jack Snow
Roman Gabriel
Fred Dryer
Deacon Jones
Bob Brown
Tom Mack

That'd be worth some $$$$ if I still had it.

My town has became a big attraction, lately due to "Midnight in The Garden of Good and Evil". I grew up here, moved away and came back. I like the laid back southern charm it still has. Its funny that the Bonaventure Cemetery has became so popular that they lock it up at night. I have relatives buried there and have passed out there at night in my younger adventures. The Wormsloe plantation is where they filmed the house for Forest Gump, its been a historic colonial place since I was knee high to a grasshopper! Lets not forget that Juliett Gordon Low was born here, which is the founder of the girl scouts, guess we wouldn't have all those great cookies! Oh and Mrs. Wilkes heart clogging country food, Ft. Pulaski and Ft. Jackson from the civil war, man there is alot crap here. Golf is also big here, minutes away from Hilton Head Island. I guess this town is ok, just need alot more rock concerts and it would be great!
