I have a nice house on a quiet road near the Chesapeake Bay . Wanna buy it?
Everyone wants to sell me their home!!! I am trying to take things a little slow, unless you have the perfect home, haha

Life is too short and we have lost alot of good soldiers, smile and enjoy life. Anyways, my point is move where your heart tells you and enjoy your time. Any place you go there will always have some kind of bad points to it, but there are also good ones too. Its a matter of how you look at it! Good luck!
THANK YOU!!!

"hookem"...I was born and raised in Maryland and lived here 95% of my life and I love it!! I left back in 2006 to go live in MI and missed it sooo much that I came back ( didn't just miss MD, but people as well). I think it's a great place to live and raise a family. Sure the taxes have gone to 6%, but that's what I was paying up in MI...kinda used to it now. but let me say this...welcome to MD if that is where you want to be.

We are looking to move out of here. My husband says where, I said I don't care as long as its not here! I said take me to Alaska anywhere is better than here! You seriously do not want to move here. There is nothing to do but go to bars or eat. This place is friggen boring and not to mention the crime! OMG! I can't tell you how bad it has gotten here since I bought this house here 12yrs. ago! I do know that come hell or high water I will be gone from here before my daughter gets to high school because there is no way on God's green earth that she is going to Great Mills High school! Trust me, you don't want to be here!

That is why I am starting to look now. I moved to AZ (the part that actually gets snow) for about 3 months and cried for 83 of those days then came back to Texas!!! I was in the middle of now where!!! I want to find a place that I can make a home in, my home. Don't get me wrong, I will always be Texan it's just a thing with us, but I just want to find somewhere else I can enjoy as much!

See, that is still vauge... I can tell you don't move to South Dallas, there is nothing to do and you will be robbed getting out of your car (day or night)!!! The kids have to go thru metal detcs. before entering the school and are offered drugs on and off campus all day!
Move to Plano or McKinney (which is north Dallas) they have one of the lowest crime rates in the nation and the best school systems in the state!!! All within 40 miles of each other, one on each side of Down Town Dallas

Born and raised in PG County here. Went to Skin Dark High school

MD has turned into total crap from my point of view. Charles and St. Marys is better than PG bet they are catching up very fast. I am thinking about hitting the hills of WV or maybe going out west. I've never really went anywhere too far from here just know this is not the place I want to spend the rest of my life. The only thing keeping me here now is my Family. I would love to find a good enough excuse to finally pack up and go.
