pretty much what the title says. would be kinda nice if a lot of us contribute and show us around in the respective hometowns. like where it is, how the skiing is there, what you can do in summer, some info about the town and maybe some pics.

could be one of the top-40 threads of all time or not, you decide.

Antioch was started as a coal mining town... but then they all moved to west virginia?

we have a skate park that i go to as lot. we have about 25 baseballl/ softball fields in one complex and we have lots of leagues to play in there.

my town is pretty sweet our high school alone has 1800 kids

and theres 3 elementary schools.

our band is one of the best in the world nothing to brag about but they play at disney every april vaca and they went to the summer olympics in china to help play a few ceremonies... this year alone they went to the ny saint patties day parade, disney world. they went to the presidential parade to play and they got 4th out of all the bands who played... most were colleges. and they are going to the rose bowl next year to play in the pasedina parade of roses.

as the other guy said, its german, but ok, our dialect is a little tricky so i guess its legit

well, it isnt exactly cheap here fo sho. but its possible to live 10-20 mins down the valley and its very affordable there. and wages are adjusted kind of, so you wont have to starve or so.
