Hmmm...interesting thread! We've been in the state of North Dakota for about a year and a half, but definitely have noticed some things.
And here we go:
In North Dakota....
1. We turn right on red also
2. 75 mph is the speed limit on the interstate--which I follow (but, to which my husband would argue, I never really even approach...ok, ok, I regress--I'm a pretty slow driver
). So yeah, everyone (and I mean everyone) is pretty much flying past me, seeming to take 75 as just a suggestion.
3. A very popular phrase is 'You betcha!'
(Solution=light-blocking shades, but only in kiddo rooms
)
10. There are fields, and fields (and, again, more fields
) of crops--corn, beans, sugar beats, wheat, hay...and my absolute favorite: Sunflowers. Seriously, I got goosebumps the first time I saw a field of sunflowers. All standing so tall, their 'faces' looking up towards the sun...beautiful!
