Mam August is the best time to visit with all the stuff that goes on in Edinburgh at that time of year. But I hope one day you will get to come visit. Bring a rain coat lol

Dw i'n byw yng Ghymru - translation - I live in Wales. I live about 12 miles from Caerdydd/Cardiff and, as you can tell, we have our own language. All road signs etc are bilingual - in English and Welsh. Most people have heard of our football team and Gareth Bales. I was born in the same town as Tom Jones - Pontypridd. Unsure what else to write here. Like Scotsgirl we have wet and windy winters although at the moment we are having a lovely autumn with quite warm sunny days interspersed with wet colder ones. Next month our clocks go back an hour to GMT as at the moment we are on BST - British Summer Time.

Briallen The first two words you wrote I was like OOhhh she is Welsh!! Ain't no other language like yours lol, can spot it a mile away. I am so glad you get autumn, I am almost positive that the Met office has given us a yellow rain warning for the last few years. Always the problem with the west coast though isnt it lol

Hello everyone! I'm brand new to 3FC. :) I look forward to making friends here and giving and getting information and support. I was born and raised in Minnesota and I'm still here. I'm from northern Minnesota, but live in central Minnesota. I dream of Hawaii...my goal is to move there in the next 5-8 years. :)

Hi everyone I'm from Winnipeg or as we call it Winterpeg....... we have 4 seasons and each one it so beautiful but winter.. WOW.... if we get a day with a windchill you can freeze any exposed skin in 3 mins.... all I can say is I AM CANADIAN,and I love all my seasons..... coldest winter was a christmas morning the windchill will 73 below zero....
flip side our summers our the hottest we break records at lest one day a summer

Hey everyone,

I am enjoying touring the world.

Scotsgal I sure do want to go to Scotland. It's on by bucketlist.

Briallin I love Tom Jones and Princess Di. Was so upset when she died.

Goldie My favorite actresses name. Hawaii sure would be nice to move too. I would miss my seasons we have though. Many people move to warmer climates from here 90% move back though.

Oh Canada Didn't realize you got so hot in the summer also. WOW is right that is some windchill. But I always say you can put more clothes on when cold. You can only take so many clothes off.

Megan,

My neighbors lived there for quite a while they loved the balloon shows.

My name is Joyce and I am from York, Pennsylvania - 45 minutes to Hershey, PA and all its chocolate glory!

It is really nice to meet all of you!

Morning Glory I jumped on a Chinese bus tour in NY that went to Hershey PA one year after working at Camp with the kids. The museum is still to date the weirdest and most trippy experience I have ever been to lol. Wish I got to go to the park though.

mam1958 - Princess Di was English. Very sore point as our last true Welsh princess was Gwenllian, Llywelyn ap Gruffudd's daughter. My granddaughter, like many other Welsh girls, is named after her.

Scotsgirl - I love Scotland. We went touring there about 45 years ago. We have been having some lovely summer weather here. Friends in a couple of places in England were complaining about the rain (think it was Saturday) and we were basking in the sun. Do you get problems with the midges or is that further north?

Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Home of the best food in the world, our beloved LSU Tigers and this summer police shootings and floods! Our summers are awful hot but we have mild winters and beautiful spring weather.

Thanks for all your replys,

Joyce I have heard that it is beautiful country by you.

Briallen sorry it's a sore spot, but I still will hold Princess Di in high regard. Classy lady. What ate midgets?

Cakelady one of my best friends is from Baton Rouge area. Loves the tigers also. She was lucky she just missed all that recent flooding. It was at her back deck. Scary.

Born in Kansas, raised in Texas, currently living in Washington.

I'm in a small little place called DuPont, WA. Right up the road from Olympia and not to far down the road from Seattle. I've been in Washington for 5 years now and I'm loving it. DuPont has lots of trails, its so green and lots of water. The views here are gorgeous.

Glitch,

You've done some moving around. Sounds nice where you are. Wish you could send us some of that rain. We have had so little this year. Not like that here usually. Everything is so dry.

This will ruin the foliage season here. Right now we are having the Big E. At least the weather has gotten cooler here for it.

Thx for you reply.

Mary

I live in Western North Carolina. The mountains are beautiful but what I love best is the people. Everyone is so friendly. I've lived here most of my life and even though I wasn't born here, I consider this my home.
