RE: State roll call
Michigander here.

Look at the palm of your right hand. With the index finger of your left hand, find the very bottom of your thumb joint. Yup, that's it, right above the blood vessel that's in Ohio. That's where I live.

RE: State roll call
And, Mr. Forrest, exactly what is it that's wrong with being from Maryland or something? Like Mr. Terrific, I was also born inside the Beltway before there was a Beltway. Although I'm not there now, I'm still rather fond of Maryland or something.

Maryland Is For Crabs!

RE: State roll call
Well I am now a middle Tennesseer, but not in Nashville proper, more south near the car plant. But I can say that I have spent time in FL (too young to remember), OH (lots of trains), NH (a southerner in snow, what a funny sight), AL (that's deep south), VA (Go Hokies), MD (is everything here a suburb of DC?) and MO (dirty cities).

Out of town for a week - lots of catching up to do.
Taxachusetts - "We will protect you from yourself".
Some of the country's most ridiculous gun laws; non-childproof lighters and strike anywhere matches illegal; pepper spray will get you time; most hunting knives cannot be shipped to me. Liberalism run amok!
Fortunately, I'm only a hop and a jump from VT and NH.
There is much secessionist feeling out here in the hills, but I doubt anything will come of it. The only time Boston knows we exist is 15 April.

RE: State roll call
Snowman, after my dad left the Navy (I racked up Hawaii, California and Florida by the time I was 4), I was raised in family's home territory of Lower Michigan, managing to hit Kazoo, Portage, Albion, Big Rapids, East Lansing, Mount Pleasant, Cadillac, East Lansing again, before whisking myself off to Marquette in the U.P., where 15 years led eventually to becoming a Yooper by marriage. This Wisconsin trip is very weird for a faithful Michigander.

pekka - I do know how to spell yooper. I was sleeping at the time. I understand and agree with you about being a faith Michigander. Raised Grand Rapids and family in Big Rapidsarea and Cadillac. Was looking at going to Ferris U. but joined the Navy instead. I think Ferris would have been more fun.

Phil, I lived in a very small town by the name of Perry. I lived in a neighborhood that had formerly been a christmas tree farm that had matured by the time I lived there. Lots of exploring of the woods and climbing trees.

Snowman, you know you're a dyed in the wool Michigander when you look at a sports headline and can't understand why Ferris State University is playing a game in Talahassee. My dad is a retired FSU administrator on top of being a retired Navy SCPO.

WOW!

Matt posts twice in a no "Help Me Matt" thread?!

How is married life?
Where's the wedding photos?
You're in Tennesee?
That's where my daughter lives, and where my antecedents were from.

Bear..
You just lurking these days?
Stop in and say H! more often.

Dunk...

You're more in evidence here, too.
Where are you moving, and when are you moving there?

I will check out the Marble Mtn. thread.

WHEN WE WILL SEE YOU AGAIN?!

Mel, I'll be down as far as Bridgeport for July 4th weekend. Going into Hoover - North Yosemite for a 5-day trip and hopefully baggin' a couple peaks and catchin' lots of fat trout. I'll be spending 3 nights at my all time favorite backcountry site. Even better then the Bench Lk site we both have used. I also might be in the Sonora Pass area in June - July too.
