My questions are.... Who stayed in the area they were born in? Who moved away, and if so why, when and where?
Are any of you serial movers?
Born in Texas. Moved around a bit as a child due to my dad's work, including a few years in Iran. Joined the Air Force at 22 to do some more traveling ... they stationed me in Fort Worth, 15 miles from my birthplace.
But I did get to live in Spain during my enlistment, and was stationed in Saudi Arabia.I settled in California after discharge so we could raise my son near his mother's large, extended family (mine is, unsurprisingly, scatttered pretty well). Once he was old enough I moved back home to Texas.
My gypsy boots are tucked away safely under my bed; at this point in life, I like the idea of throwing down roots. There's a lot of traveling in my future, but moving? I might have one more jump left in the tank, but that'll be for a damned good reason, and not youthful wanderlust.
