I was born in the year 1953, (I'll be 62 years old, come October.) On my mother's side of the family, I was the first person to leave Long Island, New York, circa 1978, {get ready for this} in little over 300 years.
Now residing in the People's Republic of Washington {State, for those on the East Coast, they hear Washington & think Wash. D.C.} or more commonly known as the San-Fran-Freak-O of the North.
That’s amazing! My folks left NY in the 1820’s to go to Ohio. Apparently the farming was better there.
I thought WA had a lot of conservative areas outside of Seattle?
I’ve never been but plan on going next year sometime!
