Most of the members usually know the locations of other members on the forrum but for some of us we have not been here long enough to pick that up .It would also help new members as well. As Okie_bob stated in another post it would be nice to know where you are at as it sometimes pertains to a particular subject as for weather conditions, snow load, ground conditions and etc.. I have changed my profile to include a general area. I promise we will not show up for supper ;D c*
Good board :)
I hang mine in Okanogan, Washington about 60 miles South of Canada in the Northern Middle of the State. Mark
From time to time it gets suggested that eveyone should modify their profile to include a general geographic area. I believe it is a very good idea. For one thing, many questions that get asked have a geographic component.
Changing the profile is easy... doesn't even require pictures.
Click on the 'Profile' tab
Look under 'Modify Profile' on the left.
Click on 'Forum Profile Information'
About the middle of the page there is a field labeled 'Personal Text:'
Enter a general geographic descriptor
Click the 'Change Profile' button at the page bottom.
This is the same place you can become younger or older ;D or change your gender. :o

Thanks to my mom -- she liked the classics when I was a kid.
Central Virginia!
my wife has the music books for oklahoma... she sings... so the book is on the piano... Gotta love those old musicals...There are all kinds from the 50's
Tulsa has (or at least used to... I think they still do) an outdoor theater where you can see Oklahoma during the summers. I took a Malaysian friend there when we were in college and she had an absolute ball. She took pictures with all the actors/actresses and sent copies home to her folks in Malaysia. As for me, I love musicals, especially if you can catch a live performance. One time a long time ago, a very good friend from highschool got me tickets in the nosebleed section of the Civic Center Music Hall in OKC to see Will Roger's Follies.
North East Alabama. I hope to be here from now on .... I like deep roots!
Williet, that's a pretty area. We were through there last summer on vacation, and my youngest cried when we left Alabama.... she wanted to move there and live on the "Awful Mexico" (that's what she thought we were saying when we said the "Gulf of Mexico" ;D) But I thought the northern part was awfully pretty too. Little one's been drawing palm trees ever since we were there...it was an especially nice change from Wisconsin in June.
Live, work, save my money in Pacifica, CA.

Hi Folks, I hang my hat(s) coast to coast and from border to border. The bills get paid in NW Illinois.......sparks
I am located 18 miles SW of Maricopa, AZ in an area known as Hidden Valley. In my attempt to become an in-state snowbird I will be spending summers in NW AZ, an area known as Bridge Canyon outside of Seligman, AZ The temperatures are typically 20 degrees cooler. Last summer we had a record long term heat period where temps hit 110-112 regularly here in the desert. The desert is a hard place to beat in the winter time though. Todays low 48, high 66 if the weather prophets are to be believed.
Currently hangs in Spokane, WA. This spring house will be sold and my hat will travel on my motorcycle for 3-4 months throughout the US, to stop at my little mountain place outside Plain, WA.
Sort of like a 3-4 month round trip ticket(WA to WA). Well if you get this direction somewhere in the middle let me know.
