http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mansfield


"Mansfield, which D.H. Lawrence described as "that once romantic now utterley disheartening colliery town" in Lady Chatterley's Lover still does not have a bookshop, apart from a small section in W H Smith.
In Nottinghamshire, Mansfield is regarded with some disdain, being as it is a working class town with little in the way of culture or scenery. That said, the ancestral home of Lord Byron, Newstead Abbey, is located not far away in Ravenshead. The community based Bandwagon Recording Studios are also to be found here.
The town's bus station is often cited by locals as one of the very worst places in England to spend time waiting for transport. The town, like many others, continues to suffer from glaring problems with drugs, alcoholism and antisocial behaviour, possibly a legacy of its close links to the now almost defunct coal mining industry."

Cool~Cape Cod is like a world all it's own. Falmouth is affectionately called the armpit of the Cape. If you were not born here, no matter how long you've lived here, your considered a washashore.

Dennisport is probably one of the places I haven't visited here yet. Lots of wonderful things to do around here, though the teenagers would say diff., if you like nature activities and such.

Next time your around just shout out and we'll chat about some of the things to do. Did you make it to the National Seashore (Salt Pond Visitor Center) in your vacation? Excellent bike trails everywhere and of course the beaches are awesome. ...

where i am from... pretty big chunk of history here..........http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Augustine%2C_Florida

[Wheeljak]

Six years ago, I moved to Charlotte, North Carolina for family reasons. Once my work was done there, I returned to Tampa, Florida, which was my hometown from my teenage years and up.

Places I've also lived:
Queens, New York
Columbia, Maryland
Louisville, Kentucky

I learned something new about each of my homes by getting these Wiki links; this was fun to do.

Not my favourite place in the world (I prefer Ottawa, where I grew up), but this is my home now for the foreseeable future.

Hey, I've been there. Well, through there.
I drove from Charlotte to Louisville, KY a few years ago, and I drove right through Shelby, on the way to I-26. That route is, hands down, the most picturesque long distance drive that I've ever taken. Right through the Blue Ridge in April. Breathtaking scenery.
Wouldn't wanna live there, though...

You just reminded me of a girl I used to know that lived in nearby Boiling Springs; a student at Gardner Webb College. Lovely girl; a tennis player from Israel. For some reason, she assumed that I was a Black Jew (I still haven't the slightest idea where she got that from), and she suddenly lost interest when I told her I wasn't Jewish--
And I had to let her pass.
She keeps on passin' me by....
She keeps on passin' me by....

That hook turn sounds absolutely terrifying. Of course, maybe Aussie drivers are more hospitable than they are here. The local newsrooms would love the hook turn here, because they wouldn't have to go hunting for carnage to show at 6; they could just camp out at a busy intersection and wait for the blood to start flowing. Why, pray tell, do you keep shuttling back and forth from one side of the globe to the other? Don't you have to unload all of your stuff, and basically start over each time you do that?
