    That's way cool.

    My dad tossed me at 17. I would have left anyway.

    I went from Anchorage AK to panama City Florida...I could not GET far enough away....put myself through a 900 hour machine shop course there while living in a travel trailer with 3 friends and a whole lot of cockroaches.

    In his last days I got the chance to thank him for that...best thing he could have done in hind sight!

    What is your "Hometown"?

    Grew up in La Palma, Ca.
    Lived in Hawaii most summers when young (4-12 years old). Then told parents I wanted to live there full time. That last about 5 years. Went to Punahou and Kam schools. Graduated back on the mainland.
    Got married and bought a home in Yorba Linda.
    Then in 07 had a business opportunity that brought me to Nevada.
    I tell people I'm from where it suits me best for business. Most of the time I say OC. But, when I work with people from Hawaii, I'm from Waipahu.
