Born in South Carolina but raised in Maryland. Met my future husband at Annapolis. After he proposed and told me that we would me moving to Pensacola for flight school, I asked him if Pensacola had hurricanes and he said ("No, they only have those in the Miami area"). I have learned that guys will say anything to get their girl and I guess I was having a blonde moment because I believed him! The day we moved into our apartment (30 years ago) Hurricane Eloise was coming right towards us - I have never seen movers move so quickly - they just wanted to get out of there. Since then we have lived in Corpus Christi, Tex.; Jacksonville; Brunswick, Maine; the Azore Islands; Monterey, Ca.; Lake Ridge, Va.; Bath, Maine; Severna Park, Md.; Fort Lauderdale; and now we divide our time between Pittsburgh, Pa. and Watercolor.
In all of our travels we have never seen beaches as beautiful as those of 30-A. I believe that SoWal has a great sense of community. What brings everyone together is their love of the area and the people are the THE best!
Go Navy, Go Steelers!


What year was it that you moved to Pensacola? We have good friends that lived there as well and he went to flight school. They stayed at our WC place last fall and went over to Pensacola and had so much fun reliving their memories, and seeing some of their old haunts still standing!

Born in Bham...went to Auburn for 5 lovely years. Moved to NY for an internship. Internship turned into a job for 2 years. Job turned into a nightmare (think Devil Wears Prada). Moved to Sowal for 4 months to regain my senses, now back in NYC.

Where do you live on Long Island? I went out to a concert at Jones Beach a few weeks ago. It's so nice out that way!

I used to work for an agency and we did Love Heals and Super Saturday out in the Hamptons. We also did a few movie premieres out there. I wish I could afford to go out there for personal reasons...not always work!

I'm in South Massapequa about 9 blocks from the beach. Never go to the beaches here. I rather just go for the weekend to Sowal. Hamptons is about a hour drive from me ( going 80) I really like East Hampton the best. South is OK. My work takes me all over NY and FL. My studio is in Bellmore ( right off the Meadow Brook pkwy).

Chicago suburbs and Wyoming. Spent the 70's in Wyoming during my sweet rebellious period. Loved the skiing and outdoors and mountains until I got old enough and realized that going 2 weeks straight with a high of -10 was just not natural - no matter how pretty the snow is.

Mountains are beautiful - but now after getting older and realizing the damage I have done to my knees by skiing - I think swimming in a warm gulf is much better. Trying to work our way down there full-time - but have elderly parents to worry about right now - Welcome to the sandwich generation!!!!!!
