So Ronnica really made me want to find my spot. You can too!
Here's the top 24 places suggested for me to live... very interesting - (my comments are in red after each one):
Norfolk, Virginia - Heart of the Hampton Roads. This spot was the only American city completely destroyed and rebuilt in the Revolutionary War; a British cannonball in St. Paul's Church wall is a reminder…
I've never visited this city, but I think I know several people from there!
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma - Big City on the Plains. Located in the heart of America, visitors to this town can use water taxis to visit restaurants and shops in the famous Bricktown district…
I wonder if Ronnica likes this one for me.
Nashville, Tennessee - Music City, U.S.A. - Though best known for its music, this spot also boasts the Hermitage, home to Andrew Jackson, Americas first president from the wild "West"…
I could join Alicia's other friend Nicole.
Cincinnati, Ohio - The Queen City - This big Ohio city with the small-town feel is home to baseball's first professional team: the Reds started in 1869…
My aunt and uncle used to live outside this city. I visited there... but don't remember loving it.
Toledo, Ohio - Glass City of the Great Lakes - Michigan and Ohio were ready to go to war over possession of this town in 1835; President Jackson awarded it to Ohio…
That sounds like a place where people on tv live.
El Paso, Texas - Where the Sun Always Shines - This ultimate "Old Southwest" city actually has a minor-league ice hockey team, the Buzzards…
down in the west Texas town of El Paso... i can hear my grandpa on the guitar in my head right now
Carlisle, Pennsylvania - The Waterfront Capital - The Rockville Bridge near this Pennsylvania town was built in 1901 and is still the longest stone arch bridge in the world…
the bridge sounds cool... not really
Minneapolis-St Paul, Minnesota - Wealth of the Twin Cities - Enjoy Broadway productions or local gems in this city which features more theater seats per capita than any other city outside New York…
i've been there - and know people there... so that could be fun
Charlotte, North Carolina - The Queen CityHome to First Union and Bank of America, this spot is renowned as a financial center…
it's like home, sort of. (i live in Raleigh, but i'm from western north carolina and have spent lots and lots of time in Charlotte)
St. Louis, Missouri - Wonder of the Modern World - The Sporting News recently named this the best sports city in North America…
well, okay. that's a cool arch they've got...
Seattle, Washington - The Emerald City
The game "Pictionary" was developed by a waiter in this town in 1986…
sleepless?
Cleveland, Ohio - The New American City - This city is the home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum…
again. for tv people.
Columbus, Ohio - A Capital City - The bold Neighborhood Pride initiative in this Ohio city is building community while making the city safer and cleaner...
what is up with all these ohio cities?!
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - City of Three RiversThe world's first all-motion picture theater, the "Nickelodeon," opened in this steel city in 1905…
that could be cool
Kansas City, Missouri - City of Fountains - Residents of this city have access to all the lip-smackin', finger-lickin' barbecue they can get at more than 90 local barbecue joints…
no way. no how. they have a horrible airport... right julie?
New York City, New York - The City That Never SleepsThis great city was once known as New Amsterdam, until the British seized it from Dutch settlers in 1664...
NOW we're talking!!!
Chesapeake-Virginia Beach, Virginia - The Southern Tidewater RegionThis Virginia beach town's annual Neptune Festival features sports competitions, an arts and crafts show, and a Grand Ball…
see my notes for Norfolk
Detroit, Michigan - The Motor City - The first State Fair in the nation was held in this Michigan city in 1849…
nah... that place is just an air hub for me. although i did visit a very special family in Ann Arbor once at UofM Children's Hospital
Bergen-Passaic, New Jersey - Better than the Big Apple - Just west of the Hudson River, this area offers high-quality family-friendly communities within easy reach of The Big Apple…
better than the big apple? i wonder if the folks in ny know that's their logo
Long Island, New York - The Great Island - This largest island on America's East Coast offers an incredible variety of cultures and landscapes…
yay again!
Augusta, Georgia - Georgia’s Garden City - The Masters golf tournament is held in this Georgia town each year…

It's so crazy, 2 of my friends had OKC on their list, but I didn't on mine. It's really a cool place to live, though, if you don't mind driving (it's the largest city in the world, area wise).
so i don't like this list cause it didn't say hiawassee, ga.
haha...thanks for helping me smear kci's image! i mailed my letter a week ago and still no reply. they have one more week before i'm writing ellen!
