I'm from wisconsin and i absoultely love it here. The weather is gorgeous. and it's even more pretty during the winter. The rolling hills and mountains. If you visit wisconsin, you will love the smell of fresh cut hay and of course let's not forget the cows

. Amish is very famous here in wisconsin. I wouldn't move even if someone paid me to move

Where in WI??? I have friends and/or relatives in Madison, Milwaukee, Appleton, Neenah, Minoqua, Eau Claire and Steven's Point! I also spent a summer up in Egg Harbor and my dad is a diehard Packers fan (for which he gets made fun of in Chi-town) My parents actually met at Marquette (and now, to their dismay, their firstborn goes to DePaul...hehe!)

I would move away from Perth - but not forever. Australia is a very young country and as a result I feel that we don't necessarily have quite the age or depth of other places in the world. There isn't really much of a sense of history here, well, especially not in WA. Over east there is more but even still, nothing like anywhere in Europe or even the US - which is a young country, too, but still twice as old as Australia.

So I kind of feel like I live somewhere all new and shiny and nice, but not really all that interesting in terms of what has gone on here. It is still like a teenager, whereas some of these photos have such an ageless depth and quality it gives me goosebumps.

Let me know if it turns out he knows about it! From what I read on the "History of Ormond Beach" page it seems that the name James Ormond was passed down to at least include a III! Anyway, like I said, keep me updated!

Hi!
Thanks!
Michigan is a beautiful state, but like Fwan said you wouldn't like living where it always snows in the winter. It's nasty lol.

Good Bye!

This is Lake Michigan which is one of the Great Lakes. Just happens to be within walking distance of my house!

The Lighthouse you see out the end of the pier is what the next two photos are of. This was taken on one of the dunes just down from my house, I live closer to the pier.

This last photo is from the end of my street which is actuly Muskegon Lake. We are in the nook of Muskegon Lake and Lake Michigan!

There are also lots of Muskegon Images and info on mymuskegon.com
