"....but you will find the friendliest people in the US."
So true! Northerners don't always know quite to make of us when they first get here. We'll talk to you in the grocery store, whether we know you or not, and nod or speak to you on the street, and hold doors for you as we exit them, and generally behave as though we've known you most of your life. It's off putting for some folks until they get used to us.
