I live in The Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, UK. Right on top of a hill, so great times to be had enjoying snuff whilst gazing over to the Black Mountains…

@bob And we’re not all potato farmers either 
Our city just landed the western region Chobani Yogurt plant, so that will help our local economy quite a bit. More demand for dairy, more demand for feed, etc, etc, etc. It’s possible that it cause a price battle for crop contracts between dairies and Budwieser/Coors. 60% or more of our farms are contracted out to large factories and such. It will be good for us.
Southwestern Ontario, Canada. About an hour east of Detroit.
Wilmington, Delaware, USA, a medium size city in the middle of the northeast’s urban belt. Philadelphia is less than 1 hour northeast and Baltimore is less than one hour southwest. Washington, DC is less than 3 hours southwest and New York City is less than 3 hours northeast. Atlantic Ocean is 2 hours away, Appalachian Mountains are 2 hours away. Chesapeake Bay and Delaware Bay are much closer. Hurricanes: infrequent. Tornadoes: rare. Earthquakes: very rare. Floods: rare. Landslides: never. Volcanoes: never. Summers are hot and humid with frequent brief thunderstorms, but also frequent drought. Winters are moderately to very cold with occasional blizzards. Autumn and Spring are nice, though it rains a lot. The city was founded in 1638 making it one of the oldest permanent settlements in the US. It was founded by Sweden in a short lived colonial venture. The Swedes brought Finns with them who built the first ever log cabins in North America. In 1654 Dutch (somewhat forcefully) absorbed all of New Sweden resolving a longstanding dispute. We still have a fair amount of Swedish (and Finnish) and Dutch surnames here. The area eventually passed to British control not long afterwards. The area is origin to the original Scotch snuff in the US: Levi and/or W.E. Garrett on the Red Clay Creek (the city is at the confluence of 4 significant creeks and the Delaware river, making for an ideal spot for milling, shipping and shipbuilding). Snuff was still being made there, under other names, until the 1950s… On another creek, the Brandywine, was founded the world famous (infamous?) gunpowder turned chemical company, DuPont. In later years the city’s economy has focused around banking, due to the state’s lucrative tax laws (something like Switzerland). Here is a picture of me there, right in the middle of everything like I told you. Look close, I am the one waving:

Farmers, man more civilized then I was told. I heard it was mostily vikings hunting wooley mamoths and evil monkeys. Guess the school system here sucks.
I reside east of bob and a little north west of xander . Limerick Pa. in the shadow of the nuclear power plant. Someday knowned as ground zero, when it fails. If I hear the siren it is already too late. Just enough time for one last snuff

@bob A local ordinance in 1997 stopped that kind of shenanigans. They forced us out of the dark ages. Although they almost repealed it in the great mammoth stampede of 2002.
Durham, NC - which was once at the heart of tobacco country, first with the popular Bull Durham tobacco blend in the 19th century, and later with the Dukes owning the American Tobacco Company, to which many other major tobacco companies in the US merged in 1890. After an anti-trust suit in the nineteen-teens, the American Tobacco company was broken up and four companies emerged - Liggett & Myers, Lorillard, R. J. Reynolds & American Tobacco Company. L&M and American Tobacco stayed in Durham, so apart from hundreds of tobacco warehouses and manufacturing plants, you see plenty of old signs and water towers for Chesterfields, Lucky Strikes, Pall Mall, etc, which were made in Durham. It’s neat to see all the tobacco history around you when you go downtown, and nearly all of the old shut down buildings have been re-purposed, and downtown is pretty vibrant again after a good decade or two of pretty rough economic times when the tobacco industry left. What always cracks me up now is that Durham’s current motto is “the city of medicine…”

That is just sad. Really really sad.

@Willymac They should make medicated snuffs just to keep with the new motto.
