    You live in Eugene? She has lived there and in Springfield since she moved to Oregon over 10 years ago. I will let her know. She is actually a member of PT but only visits when I tell her to look at something.

    I guess I'll take the next letter too!

    Sacramento, CA - The capital of California. I'm so familiar with the city I don't know anything exciting to say about it. But here is the wikipedia link, so if you are interested you can check it out.

    Ive been in Eugene for almost two years now...having lived in Albany and Springfield is your sister a Ducks fan or a Beavers fan?

    I found a city at random for this letter

    Omsk (Russian: Омск) is a Russian city located in southwestern Siberia and the administrative center of Omsk Oblast. It is Russia's second-largest city east of the Ural Mountains. The distance from Omsk to Moscow is 2,700 kilometres (1,700 mi).

    In imperial times, Omsk was the seat of the Governor General of Western Siberia, and later of the Governor General of the Steppes. For a brief period during the Russian Civil War in 1918–1920, it served as the capital of the anti-Bolshevik Russian State and held the imperial gold reserves.

    Omsk is the administrative centre of Siberian Cossack Voisko, it also serves as the see of the bishop of Omsk and Tara, as well as the administrative seat of the Imam of Siberia.

    S is a hard one - in that there are so many choices!

    Let's go with Stockholm - a big city in Sweden, though which my paternal great-grandparents likely passed, to begin their journey to America! Being is Sweden, it's mostly Lutheran, and coffee is an important part of the day. It's a beautiful place, with many waterways that border it, so there's always good fish available. If you don't mind the cold, dark winters and snow, it's a nice place to live!

    Mtn Laurel , Al Town of Mt Laurel is a beautiful planned town built on the side of Double Oak Mtn Near Birmingham. Founded in 1998 it is one of the fastest growing communities in the nation. It is a place that I hope to move to in the near future. Being only 6 mile away Koko and I spend a lot of time there. This is a unique place with homes built around nature, No front lawns allowed. This is a walking community with sidewalks and special deviations on homes setbacks so you have a sense of
    community. It has a European feel with down home southern charm.

    There are some wonderful underground caves nearby with huge stalagmites and stalactites.

    I have no clue. But I'd have to say neither. I don't think she's much of a sports fan in general.



    Tucson, AZ - It's #32 on the biggest cities in the US list with the population 516,791. Then again, I have no idea how old this data is.

    Nürburg ...is a town in the German district of Ahrweiler, in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. It is also the name of the local castle, Burg Nürburg (Nürburg Castle). The town is best known for its 24 kilometer race track, the Nürburgring. Five kilometers of the track are used for a Formula One grand prix. I went there once during the BMW anniversary. They put on quite a show. i saw BMW's that I didn't know existed.
