No mountains, a few hills though, is a very nice place to be! Quite peaceful!

Re: Geographical help please

That's almost as bad as calling west virginia, viginia and virginia, west virginia.. Simple question like : Are we in west virginia or virginia today in a truck stop while eating. Forks drop, people stop talking, you get a glare look from the waitress servicing you.. My goodness I thought I started a war or something..<br />Then some guy on the otherside of you , tells you them are-fighten words around here.. Of course Ralph was from west virginia.. He just laughed...

New England, is what the early settlers and England called it before the revolution....Thats a guess based on some facts I read or heard sometime....someone correct me if I'm wrong.

DE, it's easy to find, right between NJ,PA,& MD. Amazing how our first state is one of the smallest.<br /> Used to fish the Delaware Bay with my parents in my youth... good memories :)

I wouldn't want anything to do with the upper pennisula, it's colder then my freezer. You boys from down under wouldn't last there.

I'm close enough to be a mercenary.. Provided I get some share of the land once we take it over.. I think the first step would be to take out the Mackinaw bridge to keep the rest of Mi looking at us across the strait..

Re: Geographical help please

My uncle owns a big Christmas tree farm in the UP (he's a Packer fan). We can use that as our home base and systematically aquire the surrounding land. It'll be great! I love the land up there. Awesome skiing (for the midwest).
