Since we live all over the country I thought it might be cool to start a thread where we can post pics of our hometowns. I live in a small town about 1.5 hours southwest of Indy and about 20 minutes south of Terre Haute here in Indiana. Our town gained national publicity a few years back when it was nicknamed the "Mayberry of The Midwest". It was kinda crazy around here, the Today show even came here and did thier show from our town of about 1,000 residents. Here is some pics of our local business and homes.

CC,

Believe it or not I've only been to Muncie like 5 times. Last time I went there was when my gf at the time was a cheerleader for Indiana State and they was playing there...that's been like 6 years ago.

Jeez, I can't really find any good shots of my town. Hillsboro is like the 4th or 5th largest suburb of Portland, with just a hair under 80,000 people.
