    I live in Idaho. People seem to confuse it with Iowa, and if not, they seem to think I live in the boonies. No. There are cities in my state and it's beautiful. Shhh! That part's a well kept secret! :happy:

    Haha, 3 posts in a row about Iowa and Idaho not being the same!

    People think that Iowa is all boonies also. Far from the truth.

    We call it the Awesomer Carolina. And it is... :laugh:
    Being from NC - I have never heard it called this before. My daughter lives in SC and she doesn't call it that either! LOL
    It's just a joke, to make fun of our governor.

    Oh, you live in the desert? It's 115 degrees? But it's a dry heat...

    Yeah, just like turning my blow dryer on full blast in my face is a dry heat...

    Hear this all the time!!!! Hot is hot! It being dry doesn make it any better!

    I beg to differ on this. I moved to NV from S Georgia. In GA is would be 105 with 99% humidity. That is infinitely worse that 115 and 15% humidity. At least in the dry heat if you step into the shade it feels cooler...even if it is 115 outside. :tongue:

    Iowa...Oh thats where they grow potatoes. Or Iowa do you eat anything other than corn?

    Or "Do you live on a farm?" No I was born in the city. "They have cities in the middle of corn fields?" Yes believe it or not we are not all Children of the Corn.
