"Gina M" wrote I'm currently in Nevada, US.. and for the 8+ years I've been posting on the misc.kids groups, I don't think I've seen anyone else say they live in NV. I'm from Washington State originally. Stephanie mom to 7 Hey Stephanie! I am in Las Vegas, NV, but I am mostly a lurker ) Gina edd 5/18 Girl! Emilia Jean Finally another Nevadan Congratulations on your upcoming baby, I like the name you've chosen. I've been to your part of NV before - 5 times. Too many people there! Our whole county population is less than 10k so you can imagine the culture shock we have when we aim towards Vegas or Reno! We're up north of you by about 5 hours or so. Way colder in winter but that means we're cooler in the summer toog My youngest is a May baby - the 16th. He'll be 1 this year. Stephanie mom to 7 17, 15, 12, 8, 5 (6 on the 21st), 3 and ~10 months Thanks! I actually went to high school in Alamo, NV, where my grandmother was born and raised, so I know small town Nevada and loved it! My graduating class at Paranaghat Valley HS was 28! compared to about 400 here in LV. Our family still has property up there and I dream about one day moving back that way with my children. It is a whole different experience! I loved the cooler summers up there and the snow in the winter was a blast! Gina |

Mainly to annoy my MIL Also because when we visit I wake up at 4.30am when the sun rises and that's just way too early to start the day. I find it hard to believe anyone actually likes that. In FNQ I've been told that the days are usually 12 hours long so daylight saving wouldn't work there but it would in Brisbane. -- Cheryl Mum to Shrimp (11 Mar 99), Thud (4 Oct 00) and Mischief (30 Jul 02) |

wrote: My tip for living in Cairns - don't! Live in Kuranda and just take the 20-odd minute drive up and down the 'hill' everyday ... its much prettier and much cooler than Cairns. Thanks for the hint! However it will really depend on where the Defence Housing Authority has houses available when we go there. I'd rather live in Cairns than Darwin but DH wants Darwin instead of Cairns. His aunt and uncle live just out of Cairns so I think he'd rather keep away from them. -- Cheryl Mum to Shrimp (11 Mar 99), Thud (4 Oct 00) and Mischief (30 Jul 02) |

Glad to hear. We made a deliberate choice to schlep all the way up there, as my HMO (Kaiser) only gives me a choice between Boulder and St. Joe's. Too many people I know who have gone to St. Joe's (through Kaiser) have ended up with interventions they hadn't wanted and a frightening percentage have had c-sections. Gee, hard decision... I wish more people with Kaiser would schlep for better care! I've been to St. Joe's for births and every birth has been stressful. My picks are Boulder and University in Denver (the midwives are phenomenal and waterbirths are optional!). Kris |

It is a whole different experience! I loved the cooler summers up there and the snow in the winter was a blast! Gina We've been through Alamo a couple times, I think it's pretty. Of course I think almost any smaller town is nice I like Caliente too, and Ash Springs is where we stop every time we head south. We're about 2 hours away from Elko here, a tad closer to Wendover. We don't do Walmart or malls, that's for sure! Our only big store - JC Penney - is closing in the summer unfortunately. I'm not sure how many kids are in our high school here, mine are homeschooled. I know it's much smaller than my high school in Washington was but even there we only had 100 or so seniors in '85. If you know anyone interested in owning an old church in our area, I know one that will be for sale within a year or 3 Over an acre and the house is over 6000 square feet. With the mines re-opening soon and the new power plant that's going to be built within the next 6 years, property values are sure to go up. Population and job opportunities too! We hope to move before it gets too ridiculous.. now that my husband is driving a big rig we have a lot more freedom as to where we want to live. We have a dream location picked, just have to find a town and state that fit the dreamg Nice to see you here, I hope you continue posting! Stephanie mom to 7 |

Luckily no - but we did have a lot of people stay at our house the night of the big one last year. And the last storm we ended up with onions on our front lawn :-)))) LOL! -- Maggie EDD 28 April #1 |
