Aha Ha! I looked it up!

Topography and Soils:

Four major physiographic subdivisions of North America are found in Texas: the Gulf Coastal Plain in the east and southeast, the North Central Plains running north to southeastward in the center of the state, the Great High Plains in the northwest, and the Trans-Pecos Mountains to the extreme west and southwest. The topography of Texas rises gradually from east to west, reaching its highest point in Guadalupe Peak (2,667 m/8,749 ft) in the Trans-Pecos.

Haha! That's great cbmare!! I live about an hour and a half south of Guadalupe Peak and I have yet to see it! My town is the third highest in Texas behind Marfa (2nd) and Fort Davis (1st).

Well I am in Canada;) . The east coast in Fredericton New Brunswick (no Canada doesn't stop at Ontario) sorry but in my experience (I lived out west,Alberta for a couple of years) anyone on the other side of Ontario thinks we are not here or basically a part of another province.:dizzy:

Canadian mom - that's okay. i work in a call center and when we tell people we're in oregon sometimes they are like - oh, wow out there huh? and seem surprised we aren't still living oregon trail days in covered wagons. Hello - I do have electricity out here. :)
Oregon is joked to be the south of the pacific northwest. In fact, right next to me is Springfield and everyone calls it Springtuckey. :)

you think you got po-dunk in WV-I grew up in Humptulips Washington pop 216 (still to this day-someone must have moved in when I moved out-oh nevermind-my cousin had a kid)
Currently Tacoma Washington which BTW is NOT a suburb of Seattle! ( I hear my boyfriend refering to it that way-or he just tells people I live in Seattle)

Cool! I've never met anyone from Humptulips!

I'm originally from Seattle (West Seattle), and I always hated it when people would say they were from Seattle, and I would ask where, and they'd say something like Federal Way. That's not Seattle!

Lizziness, I live about 40 minutes from you in "Beaver Nation." :) Never heard Oregon said to be the south of the PNW--that's funny. I lived in Boise for nine years, which is no place for a PNW liberal. Was so happy to move back to what I consider home.
