    Interesting might not be the best term but the park is nice along with the restaurants and the overall vibe. I can see why its a expensive and a big demand to live there.

    LOL - I did think about that but I personally don't use any password reminder questions that you can get the answers off whitepage.com.

    I worked the 2010 Census at Plaza Verde apartments in that same area and the place was a dump.

    I guess we are only counting the places where we actually had an apartment or house (rented or owned). I also spent extended time (sometimes months) in hotels in certain places, like Chicago and some places in Asia.

    @boomboom @ROXRAN

    Used to know a ton of HHS grads. My old roommate Jess Sproat was c/0 92 I believe, and his brother Rob was either '90 or '91. Also Anne Russell I think was '89, Kari Harmon (she was class of '90 but for the life of me I cannot remember her maiden name), Vashali Parikh ('92 I think). Used to skate with Robert Hunter & Ricky Waggoner who I think were both '92. I know I knew a ton more, but cannot think of them off the top of my head

    I moved a ton my first few years.

    1973-76 I lived on Emporia Street in North Shore (Houston) till my parents divorced
    from 77-80 I went to every elementary school in North Shore before the end of 2nd grade. I lived in:
    Spring Branch (started Kindergarten at Spring Branch Elementary)
    Oaks of Woodforest Apts in NS (continued Kindergarten at NS elementary)
    The apts across the street from the last ones in NS (continued Kindergarten at Green Valley Elementary)
    Live with my grandmother off Louisville St in NS (started first grade at Cimarron Elementary)
    Lived off Waxahachie St in a rental house in Cloverleaf (finished first grade and started 2nd at Cloverleaf Elementary)
    Moved back to the grandmothers off Louisville St in NS (continued 2nd grade at Cimarron Elementary)
    In Jan. '81 we moved to a house in Pine Trails on the edge of NS (Finished 2nd-5th grade at Tice Elementary)
    Finished HS at North Shore, still living in Pine Trails
    in fall '91 moved to Huntsville to go to SHSU.
    Stayed after graduation to produce educational videos until August '98.
    Moved to Euless TX (close to DFW airport) in August '98 to work in sports broadcasting
    moved to a house in Fort Worth in '02 after getting married
    Still in the same house today - paid it off 3 weeks ago.
