Homeward Bound
« on: May 21, 2014, 04:26:31 PM »
Home, where my thought's escaping
Home, where my music's playing
Home, where my love lies waiting
Silently for me

My birthplace of Yuma, AZ is 1,176 miles away from Lethbridge. That is, with the "as the bird flies" way of measuring. It's 1,465 miles away by vehicle. It's still quite a distance from me, but not nearly as far as it between Yuma and Whitehorse. :D So I'm certainly closer!  :biggrin:

I had to google it, but I'm 117 miles away.

I was born in Austin, Texas but currently live in Angleton, TX. However, I plan to move back to Austin for college in a year or so. I only lived there for 3 years as a wee child but I've lived in the same home here for 14 years.

If I calculate from my birthplace (Mt. Airy, NC) to where I am currently living in the New River Valley of Virginia, I am about 74 miles away.  I'm about 64 miles from my parents' house/childhood home near the VA/NC state line.

I am currently around 130 miles from my birthplace of Charlotte, NC. My dad still lives there but my mom and brothers are all the way out in California :cry: It sucks because I only get to see them every few years......it makes me homesick especially since I have had my daughter and I wish my mom could see her more.

Don't plan on settling down in this area....don't know where I will end up in the future. :blink:

I ended up a 100 miles off on accident. I was born in Missoula, MT but we moved away to West Virginia when I was little. Then my family moved to Colorado. I got my job I have now in Colorado and ended up eventually transferring a few times and on a whim ended up in Helena, MT.

I'm in Maryland now but I was born in Landstuhl, Germany. I'm not sure how far that is exactly but it's across an ocean so I picked the last option

According to Google Maps I am 1,338 miles away from my hometown Kenosha, Wisconsin.

That's too far :(

Though, I think I'd like to move to the Northwest. Maybe Oregon.

I am 1,171 miles from my birthplace of Pierre, SD. I actually grew up, though, in ND which is farther away. But I have been in Ohio for almost 10 years now.

I was born in Penrith, which is a town just in land of Sydney,  Australia.  I now live in San Diego, CA.  That is roughly 7,500 miles apart.
