Bainbridge, Ga -- GNATS! Driving us nuts all summer. You should see us in the yard or pool with the hats with nets over our heads. LOL! Also in the neighborhood -- Festivals: Swine Time, Mule Days, and the Rattlesnake Roundup. Very rural and grow lots of cotton, corn, and peanuts.
Much more recognizable -- we are about 40 miles NW of Tallahassee, home of Florida State (Go Seminoles!)

The CN Tower and the Toronto Blue Jays, guess I should include the Toronto Maple Leafs too. We also have a national park, Rouge Park, which edges on the Greater Toronto Area. In the park is a campground within the city limits, and I can get to it in 2 minutes from my home, lucky me. All this, a safe city, and 5 million people too!

Well, I live very far from any city - I live in the sticks in Northern California - we are known for our redwood trees, fishing, hiking, forest service land, river rafting and gold mining. I love the great outdoors and feel lucky to live in such beautiful surroundings.

We also have some great sights - Desert Museum, Old Tucson (Gunsmoke and other old westerns filmed there), John Dillenger was captured here, and we have the U. of A. Wildcats - who's basketball team has won the NCAA a couple of times. Then there's Colossal Cave, Saguaro Park East and West, much more :)
