I have lived in FL since 1981. But my dad is retired Air Force and I was born in Maine, lived in New Hampshire, Michigan, Colorado, Alabama and Florida. Mind you I was in Maine for 2 days, New Hampshire 3months and with the exception of Florida I lived in the other states for 4 years.

Most people say I have a New York accent but I only flew over NY City once as a baby. Granted my husband is retired Navy and we lived in Ballston Spa NY for about 18 months.

And I never say pop I also call it coke or soda.

Also most people think I am either Jewish, or Italian but for sure from New York. Neither dad is white like the British Isles from Ohio but raised mostly in Florida, mom is Mexican, born in Texas. And I am Catholic but my Aunt by marriage is Jewish.
