My state slogan (sayWA!) is so lame, but at least it's not boring like Florida's!

I remember reading them when we went from one State to the other ! I found that very funny and of course unusual for me !

And Friday is "Wild and Wonderful" West Virginia Day!

Mine is "Georgia On My Mind". They liked it so well it's also the state song. Hmmm. Wonder which came first?

Patti said...

I was happy to see you included Connecticut, the Nutmeg State, in your list. ;-)

I came by to see your Creative Photograph entry for Roger's contest.

I shall return...

Great idea for a T-13! I always enjoy learning new (or being reminded of old) things … so thanks for sharing. Have a great day! Thanks also for dropping by Sacred Ruminations and leaving such a lovely comment. My T-13 is at Small Reflections today ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

I love potatos

It makes me wonder how they decided on their slogans.

Good T-13!

Good list. Ours is "Alabama the Beautiful", and it is!

Denise Patrick said...

Cute and quirky. UT got sued over their former one by Ringling Brothers Circus. We won, but no longer use it!

Happy TT!
