AusJapanLexus Posted September 5, 2003 Posted September 5, 2003 Hi, sometimes forget to look over at peoples profile. So thought that after we had done the "what does everyone do" forum. I thought I would do this... Ok, I will start.. I am an Australian, currently living in Fukuoka, western Japan. I lived in Atlanta until 2000.. After a short stay back in Aus, I moved here to Japan with my homesick Japanese wife... After 3 years here, next April, we are planning to pack up again, and move back to Atlanta GA! But dont what I will do with my ES.. Not sure if I will be able to bring it to the states with me.. (Right hand drive).. I do however still have my JEEP waiting for me. So I may have to become a snobby nosed JEEP driver again?..... Chris
SW03ES Posted September 5, 2003 Posted September 5, 2003 Both of my parents are from West Virginia, my parents grew up literally across the river from each other and never met until both of them moved here. I was born here in suburban DC (Maryland side) and have lived here ever since, although I consider West Virginia home. Eventually my fiance and I are going to move somewhere closer to the beach, maybe somewhere in Delaware or maybe Ocean Pines, MD. We both love water and boats, and we both hate the traffic of being so close to the city.

piggyncsu Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 raleigh, nc..been here for the 19 (soon to be 20) years of my life.... just moved for the first time outta the rents house...living kinda on my own...just me, Eze...and the expensive gas ;)....... and by the way, AusJapanLexus, i figure u can bring the es here..dunno how much that would cost you though..and you will probably need to the emissions regulations checked out and such... i mean, postoworkers get cars with steering on the right side...and some people have cars imported that are that way ;) i say try and bring it..and um...give me the jeep :D ill take good good....good care of it ;)

steviej Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 born outside of Boston, grew up just south of Boston, spent summers on Cape Cod (just like Patty's song), lived in Boston for 12 years, now living in the house I grew up in south of Boston and doing the commute thing (aka battling the "Big Dig"). Don't get me wrong, I love to travel the world and have. I guess you can't take the boy out of Boston and you can't take Boston out of the boy. ok, maybe I could live in South Beach. I have friends that live on Plantation Key in FL. I could retire there. Can you retire at 40? I would like too. steviej
SW03ES Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 Can you retire at 40? I would like too. I plan on it ;)

steviej Posted September 7, 2003 Posted September 7, 2003 my cousin Amy Jo is moving back to LA. She is going to be on the show "The Division". Never watched it but now I think I have to check it out. She was on "Felicity" a couple of years ago for the first 3 or 4 seasons. When she is settled, I will come out to LA. hopefully there will be an LOC meet going on and i will get to meet some of you westies. steviej
KWV Posted September 8, 2003 Posted September 8, 2003 I'm a country girl born in a small town in VA, moved to NC in '78 and love it here. My hubby is from Tenn. so we're not that far from them either. We have the best of it all - close to the mountains, close to the beach without having to live in either place.
dockerguy Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 H8R Proof — I was in LA last night and saw a Lexus on the street, so I know exactly where you live. Didn't have my car stealing stuff with me though, but I wouldn't leave it out there tonight, if you know what I mean. Ha ha! :) I would venture to say that there are probably more expensive cars in LA than anywhere else. I can't believe how lax (is that where "LAX" came from?) so many people are in Studio City, where I used to live, leaving their windows down and keys in the ignition. Well, I used to do that too if I just went to the store, but... It seems like most of the members here are from back east or TX. Glad to see there are a couple others from SoCal. Going to take the back road up to Mt. San Jacinto today to see snow! Should be a nice trip.
