It is such fun reading about and seeing photos of where we all live...such diversity!

Laska, what a great job as hostess with the mostest and an interesting look around the country and even the world. My town is still pretty rural - population in 2010 = 4,281. At one time, this part of Maine was a territory of Massachusetts. No matter how long you live here, if you weren't born here, you aren't a "native" - even if you were born in another New England state. Yes, there are those who substitute "h" sound for "r" (we drive cahs, and pahk them in the dooryard). People here don't have strokes; they have "shocks". They don't go to the lake or cottages for vacations, they "go to camp" (until I learned tis, I wondered what summer camp these adults were going to!) We are about 25 minutes from Portland, Maine's largest city, 20 minutes to the ocean and 30 -45 minutes to mountains and 45 minutes from LL Bean - a famous, historic Maine outdoor company made famous by their hunting boots.
