Lived in La, Fl, Ca, NC, Virginia and NJ. NJ was the worst, the state motto should be "where fun goes to die". I now live in Tennessee and love it although moving there from FL my kids went through mall withdrawal. Plenty of public hunting that the state keeps up fairly well. Prices are reasonable and there is no state tax. Folks are friendly and the winters are not that bad at all. I must say though that while I lived in NC with my folks we loved it. We were down around Cherry Point while my dad was in the Marines and if they had let him move off base I would still be ilving there. I have not been back in years but it was a great time. Virginia was great also but I have not made it back in years.

Come on out to SD. The shopping is good near the larger cities, esp Rapid City and Sioux Falls. Elk tags are harder to score, but deer and lope tags are fairly easy. Ducks, geese, and pheasant. Dove and quail. Most in these parts respect gun owners and the right to bear. Fishing on Lake Oahe is 2nd to none, my opinion of course. Rivers, creeks, ponds, lakes and stock dams. I don't think you will have any issues with finding a favorite fish to pursue either. Come on out and stay awhile. Don't get me wrong, SD has its issues, but I think we have it better than most.

Sorry about taking so long to get back to ya. I now live in russellville. It's a nice little college town right on the Arkansas river. I hunt in the national forest just north of here. These days there doesn't seem to be a lot of hunters up there. Just me and the wildlife. That includes a growing number of black bears, yah!

My people are all from the hills in stone and cleburne counties. Where in the devil is earle? It sounds familiar but I can't place it. Are you from mass? Do ya miss us dumb ol' southerners up there in anti-gun country?

Ohio is fine for us, but if I did not work at a state university and was fortunate enough to send my kids to private school, we would need to consider moving. But not necessarily back to Pennsylvania.

On another topic, Fabs, what about buying land/having your farm eventually in Garrett County? Seems like a beautiful area when we have passed through and/or stayed there though "touristy" in the Deep Creek and Oakland areas; and the county was certianly made famous by Meshack Browning, so the hunting may still be good!

Your illegals are yankees.

Oh yeah. That's the delta country. I live in the northwest part of the state. I prefer the hill country. In regards to the size of the place we have a lot of those places. I guess that's why I love it here. I live in russellville ar. It's population is something like 25,000. It's a nice little community, we have a university. It's very convenient but I would rather live farther away. Too many people for me.

I married a girl from michigan. It's been almost 30 years and my family still treats it as something of a mixed marriage. What I've found is an awful lot of what we think of as north/south differences are really more city/rural differences. My wife's from a small town in southern michigan. Her parents even used a lot of the words my grandparents did. There was still a great difference in the accent tho. When we first met I could only understand just about one word in five.

One word in five is about standard for some southern boys. An ol'boy from Ky. once told me I talked faster than he could think.

I've run into a couple of nice californians from around the bakersfield area but as for the rest I wouldn't give you a plug nickle for. Unfortunately you can't swing a dead cat around here without hitting a one of em. I'll take a rural yankee any day over one of those peckerwoods.
