I’m used to hearing DelMarVa. But I had never heard NoVa before. I’ve got a friend here who grew up in Boston England. He was talking to a friend of mine back home. He had no idea there was a Boston in England. He only knew of Boston Massachusetts. And he was always good at geography when we were in high school.
Ha! Most Massholes don’t realize that almost every town and city in New England was named after a place in Old England. Boston. Waltham. Wrentham, Hull, Gloucester…even Plymouth.
Brandywine, MD.
Indeed. But I just figured my friend Jimmy would have known that. It made me cringe and it made Simon (from old Boston) laugh. Haha.
North Carolina!

New York to Peterborough is quite an adjustment I would imagine.

At first it was. The first year I lived here I was determined not to use English words and phrases. But it was a matter of sink or swim… so I went with the flow. 
Loved visiting your country in 2013. Spent 10 days there, mostly in Barcelona. Girona was a fascinating place. Walking those winding streets, the higher you walk, the further back in time you go. And paella…I am a fiend for the stuff, and could get it everywhere. So hard to find a place that serves it where I live, let alone a good one.

Well Semper Fi, Leatherneck! 1983-1997 here. Closest I got to Pendleton was the Stumps and MCRD for a school. Was mostly at Camp Swampy, On the Med, or on the Rock. Did a bit of sand time during the 1st Gulf War.
