Rockland Maine. I moved here from NYC in '92 and have missed it ever since! A brother and sister live in NY.. Another sister lives in MI. Our family had moved to MI my second year in art school/college. But we'd been coming to Maine for awhile. Most ties to Mtc were lost a long time ago. Reconnecting with that past here on FB has been such a surprising experience. Our generations tended to move away from where they grew up and never expected to be returning. So it is such a surprise to see people as adults instead of how they were when we left them!
