+KoosKoos Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Sorry, Virginia is in the Northeast forum, so you don't count as the south! Link to comment
+KoosKoos Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Oh, and everyone knows that the biggest state in the south is also the best! Texas!!! Link to comment
vasinger Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 (edited) Sorry, Virginia is in the Northeast forum, so you don't count as the south! Virginia IS NOT the Northeast. That must be a typo, lol. Its the South. It was Southern long before Texas or Alabama were even states. And I never considered Texas the South, IMO. Its out West. Its not Southern.

Okay, followed closely by Tennessee and Georgia. Virginia's cool. My Dad's family is from there. I also like Maryland where I grew up. I'm also partial to North Carolina because we used to go to the Outer Banks every year and I love it down there. Link to comment

Yes, VA would most certainly be the south...more a reference to the silliness of the forum grouping. I know we get grief that we're not part of the "deep south" and since Texas has such a wide area, we have a lot of cultural identities too. I figure having been part of the confederacy, we pretty much signed up with the south. And hey, if the census lists it, it MUST be official! Census Regions and Divisions of the United States And visiting Richmond and New York, NY fairly regularly on business, I wouldn't have lumped VA into the northeast. Link to comment
wwflover13 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 North Carolina is a pretty cool place, but Alabama seems neat too, of course Mississippi seems interesting, and Tennessee has some great places, can't leave out almighty Texas either.... I can't really choose, guess I'll just have to settle by saying I love the South as a whole! Link to comment
ParentsofSAM Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Um duh....GEORGIA is of course the BEST southern state...heck it might be the best state period! At least we are not confused over being northern or southern! lol :wub: Link to comment

Its out West. Its not Southern. Maybe West Texas could be considered "out West." If you look at a map though, I think it's pretty clear that 1) most of Texas is smack-dab in the middle of the country latitudinally, and 2) only one state (Florida, by virtue of Key West) is any further south than Texas. Texas is certainly a hell of a lot further south than Virginia. - Mark Link to comment
+Nochipra Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Woooohoooo VIRGINIA all the way!!! We have history, beauty, and great caches!!! Link to comment
+Spencersb Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 (edited) I'm obviously partial to Tennessee, especially West TN, but I've done some GREAT Alabama, Georgia, and Arkansas caches too. Mississippi has some of my better memories, also. And I have to say, Robert E Lee would roll over in his grave if he heard us say Virginia is not "Southern!" And John B. Hood's Texans were some of the toughest troops Lee ever had! Edited February 16, 2008 by Spencersb Link to comment
+Crow T Robot Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Since this thread appears to be beating the dead horse of Virginia's forum placement, further discussion of that topic can take place in the existing threads. Closing this topic. Link to comment
