I think there MIGHT be a tiny bar there. Tourist Spot: The trailer where I was born. You'd be in Gaston, Oregon... and I have no idea what you're doing there because there is NOTHING to do there. LOL! Population is 777 people. ;o) If its where I grew up - Restaurant: Gordito's Healthy Mexican Food. Its my favorite place to eat! Tourist Spot: Pike Place Market You'd be in Seattle If its where I currently live - Restaurant: The Counter Burger... its a realyl yummy place where you build your own burger and best of all it has my favorite... Sweet Potato Fries! Tourist Spot: The Fender factory for a tour You'd be in Corona, Ca... again... I'm not sure why you're visiting there. You should drive the extra 20 minutes and go to Disneyland. LOL! ~Beth

Originally Posted By alexbook What defines "hometown"? I was wondering that, too. I haven't lived in my hometown in several years.

(<a href="http://flickr.com/search/?q=Palisades%20Park%20Santa%20Monica&w=all" target="_blank">http://flickr.com/search/?q=Pa...ca&w=all</a>) Then I guess we'd go see if Maya is still there. It was a cheap, greasy Japanese fast food restaurant in my neighborhood that got horrible reviews, but I always liked it. You'd be in Santa Monica, CA.

Tourist/Camera Spot: We have lots of tourist/camera spots, like Lodo, the Botanical Gardens, the Molly Brown House but to really experience the Rockies you would need to get out of town and go skiing or hiking. You would be in Denver, Colorado

You'd be in a teensy village near Tamworth UK.
