    Not much there, except General George S. Patton's tank. And some pretty fantastic horse properties.

    It's 225 years old, and what historical buildings haven't been vandalized are very awesome and well preserved.

    I live in a small town in SW FLorida. The best thing for me is being so close to the water. I have the Harbor /beach 4 miles away. The next nearest beach about 25 mins away. Its definately a slow town. I love it here.

    The best thing about the city that I'm living in is its barbecue. Hands down, Memphis has better barbecue than any other city. Period.
  • Miles of riverbank trails for cycling and all the great looking women along those trails that I get to look at !

    So much fun to run in town than the endless hours running on country roads ... I drive to town for a run at least once per month!
  • I live close to the lake . I love all the hills and mountains & the shows on the strip....

    Chicago, need I say more? Beaches. Gorgeous downtown. Beautiful Suburbs. Lake Michigan. Sears Tower (which I refuse to call Willis Tower). The Taste. I could go ON & ON.
  • We're so popular that we've made special appearances on First 48 countless times!


    ..Actually, I'm not proud of that.

    *Edited* Also, we have the oldest all black high school in the nation.

    The only good thing about Jacksonville is that my parents and brother live here.

    Umm Chicago, at least we have an interesting history. Other than that, I'll pass, give me the ocean or give me death.

    I'm from New York City, Brooklyn to be exact, what's the best thing about it? Everything!!!! I can get a great slice of pizza on every corner of the city, Lady Liberty is our guardian, Times Square the crossroads, the Brooklyn Bridge a Seventh Wonder, the people are tough and take no nonsense. It's a city so nice they named it twice. . It's a concrete jungle where dreams are made of, there is nothing you can't do. Let's here it for New York.

    4am last call at the bars
    Wings
    Beef on Weck

    No earthquakes
    No hurricanes
    No Tornados
    No mud slides
    I deal with Snow, get a foot overnight, push it out of the way in about 10 minutes and I am on my way.

  • Living near/in Boston is pretty sweet. There always seems to be a game going on in the City (plus our teams kick *kitten* besides the Sox this year)

    There is a ton of stuff to do inside as well as outdoors. If you get bored in my city then there has to be something very wrong with you. HA!!!
