I live in a small town that is on the outskirts of my hometown where i was born and raised. We have 7 beautiful lakes, a state park (Natchez Trace) where we have horse back riding, camping, fishing, boat tours, etc and Parker's Crossroad's Historical site. My home town is the main manufactor's of Pringles Chips and Kelley's chili. It is also home of legendary Carl Perkins (country music singer and song writer) he traveled with Elvis alot. I am directly in the middle of Memphis and Nashville....i can go West 100 miles and see the Greyhound Dog Track which is awesome or i can go East 100 miles and see the Titans and the Grand Ole Opry. :)

Wow heikeva, very informative. Sounds like great places to live everyone :)

I live in a small town is east Tennessee. I love the peace and quiet... it's mostly farming. For entertainment we have the lake and a dirt race track. We have 2 dollar stores, a small grocery store a convenience store and 2 gas stations..

Small town here top of wv. Look across ohio river or turn and see rolling green hills. Called the steel valley but fta killed mills. Full of coal miners and truckers and we hunt fish drink cookout go mudbogging and creek stompin. Y'uns might take us for slow but we work hard and play hard so we are just plum tuckered out.

We r the only ones that come from somewhere? the rest of u r nomads?
