    Tennessee is the 2nd most! [​IMG]

    Actually, I'm "from" nowhere. I've lived the first 13 years of my life in (in order) Pennsylvania, New Mexico, Colorado, and Tennessee. [​IMG]

    It's nice to see I'm not the only one out on the Left Coast! ;) Oh how I long to be back in the Bible Belt, but I guess this is where I'm supposed to be since I ended up back here even after moving out to Arkansas with the plans to never come back to California. Funny how those things work out [​IMG]

    Don't do as many did years ago coming from the south. So often they set up their own SBC churches and did nothing to win the locals. So consequently most of them are nearly gone now.

    That is a great area where you live. Win people to Christ and you will never want to leave.

    Take a few trips to Yosemite. Go to the Redwoods and Lake Shasta.

    Dr. Bob,
    Wyoming would be perfect if it were up here in the northwest next to the ocean. Surf and Turf.

    I couldn't answer this poll. I was only in the state I was born in (CA) for 6 wks and have lived all over since then. I live in VA now but I am definitely not from VA. There should be a choice for "none of the above" or "not from anywhere."

    I live in Maine.

    I went to college in Columbus, Ohio and would love to move back there some day.

    I am from the state they considered naming Columbia, but were concerned that there would be confusion with Washington District of Columbia, (D.C.), so they did the smart thing and called it Washington. Now when I am on the east coast and someone asks, "where you from?"
    I say, "Washington."
    And they ask, "D.C.?"
    Go figure.
    Nowadays, half this state isn't from here due to such rapid growth and migration. I am proud to be a Washingtonian for many generations back. And while we have Mt. St. Helens dirtying up the environment, I am pleased to report that it lies SE of me and spews its ash and sulfur eastward on the rest of you while I reside happily on its windward, clean side. I think much of it lands in Wyoming, Dr. Bob! [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] :D
