:D Those are just the big moves I didn't count the moving from house to house in the same town or area. Never spent more than a year in one place until I was 14 and settled in Southern IN. That's where the heart is I guess. :D

I live in the Northeastern part of the Gallatin Mountains http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallatin_Range.
About 10 miles down a dirt road. The closest landmark is called Chimney Rock.
http://www.mountainzone.com/mountains/detail.asp?fid=4849356
Basically, I live right underneath it. The closest town to my house is Emigrant, Montana. (12 miles away) However, the biggest town nearby is Bozeman (30 miles from here). But when I go to town...Livingston is that place (20 miles away). My property is surrounded by National Forest, and I can walk out my back door, into the National Forest start heading south to Yellowstone Park and not encounter a paved road for over 90 miles.

Born in NJ while my parents were at the beach. Raised in SE Pennsylvania. Spent 90-92 teaching HS in Brazil. Moved back to Brazil full time in 99. We spend 80% of our time there and 20% here in PA, which works out to four years there and one here. Right now we're back in PA (Quakertown area) for the year. Mac

Born and live near Elmira, NY. An old Iroquois legend/saying I read in a letter long ago tells that once you lay eyes upon this valley, you're destined to return. I've spent time in the Olympic and Sierra mountains, camped in the Mojave, slept on the beach in the Florida keys. They were all beautiful yet here I am. Maybe a bit of truth to that legend I'm thinking.
