My family came here in 1690.
I was born in Charleston, SC.
Raised in Houston, TX
Lived in Knoxville, TN, for 13 years, then moved to Florida for 1.5 years, which was the worst decade of my life.
Now live in Knoxville, TN, again, and love it.
Identify most with the Southern East Coast from the Outer Banks to Hilton Head. Charleston is my One Particular Harbor (I cry from homesickness when I see the marshes of the Lowcountry), but I'll settle for Nags Head, NC.
Proud Southerner, born, bred and raised, and wouldn't choose to live anywhere else (except maybe my own island in the Caribbean).
