Twin cities...we sure have enough of them. But how about twin states? Do they exist. Lots of states border each other, but I'm thinking about ones with some sort of special relationship that binds them as one.
There are, of course, the easy ones, those with the same name:
The Virginias: VA, WV
The Carolinas: NC, SC
The Dakotas: ND, SD
But how about some that just seem to "belong"
Vermont, New Hampshire: covered bridges and age old mountains and a fall color spectacular
Maryland, Delaware: could DE be MD's Adam's rib? Could you make a map of MD and not include all of DE?
Alabama, Mississippi: the heart (and soul) of Dixie?
Kentucky, Tennessee, there's border country in dem der hills
Illinois, Indiana: knock off Chicago and you're in pure corn heaven, flatly speaking
Kansas, Nebraska: There's more than an act of Congress keeping these two great plains states together
Arizona, New Mexico: those deserts and Hispanic hertiage, the last of the 48
Washington, Oregon: cool, green, rainy, groovey, coastal, and environmentally sensistive
Minnesota, Wisconsin: from the land of sky blue waters> |
