Ten years ago this year I left Oregon.
My oldest younger brother, now twenty, was ten when we left. That means that he's spent half his life in Oregon and half in Virginia. The others, still younger, have spent most of their lives in Virginia. For some of them, Oregon - my childhood home and all my growing-up memories - is but a distant memory.
The children I used to babysit are now old enough to babysit my children.
And here's the real kicker: as of next month, I will have lived as long in Georgia as I ever lived in Virginia!!
