Places I have lived
1. Currently live in Park City, Utah from 2006 - present. It is amazing! I love to be outside and breathe the mountain air. It makes me feel so alive.
2. Idaho Falls - 1998- 2000 and 2001 - 2006 (I will need to explain later). A big dust bowl that the wind blows constantly. There is really nothing to do there. You need to drive almost an hour to get to anything worth doing. I lived there for almost 8 years before Park City. why? Now I know why nobody wanted to visit us while we were there.
3. Olympia, Washington - 2000 - 2001 It was a beautiful place to live. We were there for only a short time, but it was so green and an hour from the Pacific Ocean, Seattle, and Portland.
4. I forgot Twin Falls, Idaho. Twin Falls is my hometown. I lived there until I was 18, then I went to U of U for school. I lived back in Twin Falls between 1996 and 1998. This is where I first owned my own house. It was short lived because Pedersen's ski and sports went out of business in the Idaho stores. Therefore, I needed to find a new job which brought me to Staples in Idaho Falls.
