Currently a 12 hour drive. The farthest I’ve lived is 22 hours away. I’ve also moved back home and moved away again.

22 hour drive, 1,394 miles. One small town to another, plus a lot of places in between.

From the western part of MA to the western part of CT, about one hour due south from where I was born.

The sickening part is that I lived here during my college years too and that can evoke some painful and weird memories. I was SO naive when I was in college.

I'm about 300 miles away, but that certainly wasn't by intent. Had a couple of moves growing up, an AF career, and now a couple of moves in a post AF career so it just worked out that way.

10 miles. But will likely be moving next year to the farthest away point in the US from here.
