People also do!

@Spinliesel Very true. My bad. I guess I should have said that they are only carriers and do not suffer from the disease.

Medical weed!

Most densely forrested State in the US! We rock. ?

Wow. Now that is impressive. But I live being near the water. Lived near Lake Michigan as a kid.

My hometown, Duluth, MN: westernmost point on the St. Lawrence seaway; the "nose" of the wolf's head that is Lake Superior. I grew up seeing freshwater stretch as far as the eye can see, and hearing the foghorns of ore boats in the distance lull me to sleep.

@stinkeye_a my oldest is currently a sophomore at UMD!! She loves it up there. Beautiful city but I don’t think I could handle staying a whole winter.

@Shelton IKR? Mind blowing. Imaagine the power that gives being the 5Th largest. I think I could get on board the secession train on this one!

California has a vibe to me that feels like home. Love San Diego area and nearby

@gigihein Yes I get the same vibes. I too love San Diego. It really is my 'home' city. ?

@patchoullijulie It isn't mine. But my daughter lived there over 3 yrs. When we first flew there the minute I stepped out of the plane, I felt I landed on my home planet.

They are heartbroken.

@Shelton Eh it can be. I grew up between Newport News, Staunton and Richmond.
And most of my adult life has been in Richmond.
Spent a year outside of Blacksburg and won’t do NORVA but just moved back to North Carolina and so far it’s ok.

No, surely that has got to be Utah? Unless an awful lot of Mormons got lost?

@LenHazell53 Well I wouldnt necessarily categorize them by religion but we have a LARGE Mormon population

Actually, if you read up on it, we can't, and if we did, we would immediately become a third world country with no Army, no real economy, and no allies. I am also sure there are 49 other states who would be glad we left.

@Sticks48 Texas probably makes up half of the U.S. Military. ?

@SleeplessInTexas So the U.S. government is going to let Texas keep a of that equipment? Hahahahahahahaha! I think not.

Cool fun facts

@Shelton It is.

Love bats. Must be incredible. We used to float in pool at dusk to watch bat show above eating insects attracted to flood light above the pool

@gigihein Once they start to come out of the cave, it takes hours until the last one flies away, well after dark.

Pretty cool. Have you been to each one that's there?

@gigihein as a matter of fact I have

@ProudMary We also used to have the World's largest, free, concrete, municipal swimming pool. I don't think it's free anymore though.

And it's the portal to the land of Oz!

@BestWithoutGods LOL, yup, and there's even a Yellow Brick Road highway.

@sewchick57 I love Kansas. My mother's family came from Salina.

@BestWithoutGods I like Salina. I lived there for about 10 months a long time ago. We're finally getting shopping and dining choices out here past the outback. LOL

Minnesota has the first (and best) ball of twine. It was also built by one man. Incidentally my parents both grew up in Darwin and knew Francis Johnson

@Marcie1974 I think they still add to the one here. I've actually been past it a couple of times and I stopped once so the kids could check it out.

What is your opinion of the Indy 500? It is worthwhile or too much noise and hype?

@HippieChick58 It's something you have to see at least once in a life time for so many reasons. Like anything else, as big as it is, it gets old like anything else. Once is probably enough. However, it's a tradition for many local and out of state families and the weekend before the event is actually a big deal for them. It's crazy time for some, sports madness to the max for others, sun and booze for youngsters... it does cover pretty much all aspects of the fun department. Highly recommended.

@IamNobody My ex was at Ft. Benjamin Harrison for several months in 1983 taking a class. They had the class in hotels across town until the weekend of the Indy, and they all had to move. I was in the town a few times, but crowds will keep me away from most places.

@HippieChick58 Actually President Harrison landmark building is now a hotel at the Fort. It's been open for a while now, more than five years I would say. That area of town is actually very nice.

@IamNobody Last time I was there was 1983. I do remember they had an awesome Children's Museum.

@HippieChick58 There's only 1 real race in Indy and it's over Labor Day.

@HippieChick58 Still running... better than ever !!!

@Secretguy It's actually Memorial day for the Indy 500 but also we have NASCAR and used to have Grand Prix and sadly we had the GPX few years but I believe it's gone now..... but yeah, INDY500 is king !!!!

@ProudMary See !!!.. I knew you are cool !!!!!

@ProudMary Perhaps Geist?

I’m proud that we are the reddest state in the Nation aren’t you?

@Shelton Yes!
Here in Connecticut it's only medical.. But I'm betting the surrounding States will want the revenue too? ?

And Payton Manning made Omaha famous.... you're welcome

@IamNobody Not a sports fan, my first reaction was "who?" Then it trickled on down, I've heard the name a time or two when I couldn't avoid it.

@HippieChick58 No worries, you don't have to be a sports fan. It's a joke anyway. I am sure Omaha it's famous by it's own right anyway.

@IamNobody At least Omaha thinks it is famous.

@HippieChick58 I know, I know... I didn't mean it in a bad way at all. No no nooooo…. any community, state, city in this beautiful country of us have something unique to offer

@IamNobody Yes, Omaha has some decent stuff, like the zoo and Warren. The state has some definitely unique features. There are definitely worse places to live, and I've lived in a few of them.

@HippieChick58 I hear you. Any place is what we make of it, that's how I see it.

@IamNobody Totally. And you have to bloom where you are planted, or at least decompose quietly.

And i love you most of all!
