Born a d raised in Lake Charles. Work has taken me to several places outside Louisiana but I've settled now in Europe which will likely be my final stopping point.
Still miss lots of things about Louisiana though.

Grew up in Pineville...after i flunked out of LSU after 2 years ..i moved to DFW with extended family there for a fresh start.. went to UTA and started a career with UPS there. Was in DFW for 26 yesrs. I loved it. Moved to Jacksonville Florida with UPS after some downsizing.in DFW. I actually love it here but miss Louisiana and Texas. My dad still lives in Pineville. I just got back from visiting him. Life takes you on a journey.

Grew up on the West Bank, dropped out of UNO at 18 and joined the Army, came back for 3 years to finish up at LSU at get a ROTC commission.
Ended up in Pennsylvania and really didn’t fit there, got a second bachelors in accounting and found a job in the DC area Bounced around until I got into the civil service and spent 19 years in the Pentagon.
Came to Vicksburg as it was the closest place to NOLA I could get a job in grade. Then moved to Ridgeland and built the house I’m in now. Any moves from here would likely be either Bay St Louis or Ocean Springs.

Born up North, Dad was in the Marines. Been having a house in Texas for over 19 years. Had a house in BTR and one in Pierre Part. Did like the S. La. part.
2017, sold all three houses, bought one house here in Tx. Looks like this is it. Don’t think I’ll move again, away from Tx.
