Hey JADE! Before I get reamed for this-I forgot to include the Rocky Mountain Region in my Poll! Could You add it? Thanx!:o

(I know! 20 lashes with a wet noodle for this mistake! *LOL*)

[$cirisme]

Sigh, the Rocky Mountains(my area) wasn't included.

I have added it for you. :)

[Pilgrim]

Well I live Down River from Detroit on a little Island in the Detroit River right where it opens up into lake Erie. I guess that classifies as Great Lakes region? Though I might have pciked mid-west, had it been included.

[Jade]

Whoops, sorry PRAISE. I didn't catch this thread until just now.

Cirisme, thanks for helping out. :thumb:

P.S. PRAISE, on your post above -- disregard the italics saying last edited by Jade. It's a long story and it's been a much longer morning/afternoon. I didn't make any actual changes to your post, though.

[Jade]

I live in eastern Oklahoma. :)

[Pilgrim]

Michiganders of the world unite!

[abarnhar]

I'm up here in warm Montana. Rocky Mountain Region all the way!

[Salus]

Southeast Michigan, can get anymore "Great Lakes Region" than that!!!

[Pilgrim]

And from the South East too...I knew you were cool. I actually live in the river on a little Island right before it opens into Lake Erie...Now that is VERY great lakes region!

[$cirisme]

I actually live in the river

The housing is too expensive that you have to live in the river?

:brow:

[Xmansmommy]

There can't possibly be 3 SE Michiganders here! :eek: I'm about 20 miles or so NE of Detroit. :thumb:

Ryokan,
Are you familiar with the Aquarium (can't remember the name of it) either in or near Cincinnati? That place was the BOMB!!!! I'd recommend it to anyone in the Cincinnati area as a great point of interest. Got to see where they feed the live sharks. Whoohooooo!

I've spend some quality time at Howel and much time in Ann Arbor (my wife just got accepted to a masters program at UofM! yahaoo!) but I live more SE than even that.

[Em7add11]

Born and raised here in freezing Wichita, Kansas. I think we're finally closing in on a half million people living here.

I'm not sure what region Kansas falls in tho. Any help here Praise? :smile:

[Reba]

Sheeesh add the left coast to your list. Believe it or not a few christians do live in California!

[Patroclus]

I believe that we fall under "Pacific Northwest," Reba.

Yikes Oregon and Washington are going to be after ya :eek:

Patroclus, what about southern California? That's no where near the Pacific Northwest!

Go back to Geography 101 :dunce:

Where's the South?????? Georgia, Ala, Miss, Sc, Tenn, Fla, Texas etc

:argh:
:bonk:

[Pilgrim]

Technically the South begins at the Mason-Dixon line. I think that Maryland, the Virginias and North Carolina might take exception to your geographical demarcations.

[Zakath]

I happen to hail from the capital of the former Confederacy, ole Virginny!

[Pilgrim]

Hey Zakath!!! Welcome to Tweb, good to have you here!

[HerodionRomulus]

Zak! O nooooo, one of them dratted unbelievers. :help:

Just kidding :rofl:

You and your very insightful posts will be quite welcome. :yipee:

Well, I was just being general and did not intend to exclude any place. I just listed the most obvious "Deep South" states.

Though to be nit-picky (and I am
:wink: ) only the cotton growing regions of West Tenn. are "South." Nashville/Middle Tenn is "Country"
(Howdy Ya'll and welcome to The Grand Ole Opry)
and East Tennessee was Union---in fact organized and was admitted to the Union as the State of Franklin but alas---the Confederates overran it pretty quick.

My great great maternal grandmother, in 1862, walked 5 miles at night to warn the Union troops that the confederates were moving their way. She lost all 3 sons in the War all Union.

btw Doing any walking on (frozen lake) water lately? :lol:

[Freak]

We split our time between South Florida and Dallas.

[Bill the Cat]

I live near Richmond, VA. My wife is from Wilmington, NC and my X wife is from Bridgeport, MI

[semmie]

[luv1another]

I enjoy living in other its a great place to live :tongue::lol:

[Entropic Gnosis]

Depending on the time of year i am either in Davis, California or in Silverdale, Washington.

[mossrose]

I also live in other. It appears that other is not as large as I thought it might be. You Yanks are awfully exclusive, eh? :whack:

[Esther]

So you're from Canada, "eh"? :wink:

SW Michigan here, but I've driven to SE Michigan a few times recently.

[mossrose]

So you're from Canada, "eh"?

How did you guess? :rofl: I really don't say eh? at all, except to make Americans stereotype me......I am from Alberta.

[Esther]

mossrose:

:lol: Now that you mention it, I can't remember hearing a real live Canadian say that in normal conversation. Our former associate pastor did drop that into his sermons every now and then to remind us that he's not American.

[mossrose]

I don't think too many in the west use it. It is used more in the east, and maybe more in French Canada. It is a joke to us here in the west too.

[Esther]

That explains it. He's from B.C. :-)

Oh, please forgive me in advance if I slip up and call you Rosey Posey, my 7yo niece's nickname. I've thought of that everytime I've seen "mossrose" today!

[mossrose]

You may call me Rosey Posey if you like, I would be delighted! Roley Poley, now, that's another matter... :hrm:

[Esther]

mossrose:

:lmbo: That had not crossed my mind. I promise, I'll never call you that.

[mossrose]

That had not crossed my mind. I promise, I'll never call you that. :highfive:

[Jedidiah]

I suppose Alaska is Pacific Northwest. It is very north and very west though. If Canada gets to be other, I should get it tooooo.

beeman

[mossrose]

Nuhuh.....Other has to be, well, other. It isn't just Canada. I think I see someone from Australia

[NSMwife]

so where does Tennessee fall?

[mossrose]

Not other. :hi:

[NSMwife]

or desert southwest, we're deffently east

[JardinPrayer]

I'm a New Yorker, which deserves a category all it's own! The closest I come is New England region, but we hardly identify with New England here.

[Bob Jenkins]

I am south of Richmond VA That makes 3 of us, I think

how about where else we've lived?

Boston area (birth place)
briefly in Texas and Mississippi
Turkey
upper New York State
Japan
Louisiana
Nebraska
Germany
Virginia

[Peek-a-boo-baby]

What can I say...I used to live in the Great lakes area (on the Canadian side of the border, but I called Michigan home for about a year). Then I married and moved to San Antonio, TX. I have no idea what area that would fall under. :doh:
