Ann Donno:  

Life After I finished collage I wanted to live my dream and moved to Chicago. I lived in Chicago for just over 4 years and I loved it there. I worked down town on Michigan and I lived a few blocks from Wrigley. There was nothing like walking to the train after work, the shopping and the people. The Christmas decorations all around and so much more. Then I moved out to Renton WA. (were I live now) Its about 10-15 min from Seattle. I love it here too but Chicago is the best city to me. I met my husband on line playing a game. NO not one of those dating lines or chat rooms. Just playing a game. We starting talking and kept running into each other with no plans to do so. It was strange. When I came out here to visit family I decided to meet him too but, not with out getting lots of information from him first. I got his phone numbers at work, his bosses name, address, a copy of his drivers license and family information and more. I gave all the information to my friend and went out to Seattle.

The weather out here is not like what I was told to expect. Yes it rains out here mover days a year then Indiana but, Indiana gets more inches or rain a year then Seattle. When we have showers here in the winter you guys are snowed in. :) It don't get real cold here or real hot. If there is no snow in my yard I can just go up to the mountains and there is lots to play in. There are great places to ski, hike and camp and lots to do and see. It is green and full of hills and mountains. I love it here. I love to travel. We travel the USA and Internationally. My husband was born in England and raised in South Africa. We have a home in SA that his parents l...Expand for more
