I may have posted here, but, in all honesty, I can't remember, and I see the need to take notice of all these Marylanders. I myself am a Virginian, reveling in my Virginianity, but I end up in Maryland often. There seem to be a lot of BDers checkering the US East Coast, more than I expected. Someday I must go up there and find one of you people...unless that would be considered Stalkeritis...which it very well might.

I'm lucky enough to live in a picturesque little town in Northern VA, very much resembling the Shire in its country, old fashioned goodness. No traffic, no hustle or bustle. Industrialization has crested the horizon, but is still far. Plus, though small and untouched by corporational tech, we've got eons of historical necessity, ala the home of General George C. Marshall, Marquis de Lafayette's favorite tavern, the site of the Battle of Ball's Bluff (one of the Civil War's first skirmishes) and other stuff too. Bonus points if anyone can name the town, but I wouldn't bet on it.
