Then my husband was stationed at Biloxi and he told me the horror stories with regard to the military and how unliked they were! But I hear lots of negative stories about the West Virginia people too! For a while I was embarrassed to admit I moved here; no more though! Isn't it sad we can't just love our country without the negativity and snobiness from a good number of people!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809056835301186628.post-68732737857864206302009-01-15T12:41:00.000-06:002009-01-15T12:41:00.000-06:00Janie, I ejoyed reading about Mississippi today. ...Janie, <BR/> I ejoyed reading about Mississippi today. It is the state where my family started from with the marriage of my parents in Hattiesburg, before my dad was shipped out to serve in World War 2. Miss. has always held a special place in our hearts.<BR/>I enjoyed reading all the facinating facts.<BR/> I feel many states get a weird reputation for certain things which doesn't really represent the people or the state correctly. Especially from Hollywood and in the news. Our beautiful state of Utah is one of them.<BR/><BR/>You are a special lady and I can't seem to stay away from your blog:)<BR/>I appreciate your integrity and the beauty you see all around you.<BR/>Thanks for sharing all you do.Beth at Auntieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01878533662208781834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809056835301186628.post-21695661402564176902009-01-15T10:13:00.000-06:002009-01-15T10:13:00.000-06:00I have the one about the writers, but I hadn't see...I have the one about the writers, but I hadn't seen the others, Janie!

I really liked reading about Ms. Osceola's endowment.<BR/><BR/>You know, I think there are a lot of preconceived ideas about the south in general. I grew up in Texas and no we didn't live on a huge ranch. We now live in Oklahoma and people have crazy ideas about this state too. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing all of those fascinating posters.Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05728612514516285320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3809056835301186628.post-58500194997715723642009-01-15T06:26:00.000-06:002009-01-15T06:26:00.000-06:00Thanks for reminding us that Mississippi is a beau...Thanks for reminding us that Mississippi is a beautiful place, I love visiting there.
