Title: Where do you call home?

My secret handshake thread got more of a response than I anticipated and one overwhelming theme was that folk felt isolated or alone. They felt like there was no one around that could relate to their struggles. I'd like to see how many are willing to share what state or province they live in and for the adventurous ones maybe even the city or county. I believe it would be cool for us to really see how many are near us. I will start off:
I live in North Port Florida.

I split my time between the left side and the middle of misery.
