Some cities slicker than others

I enjoy traveling, seeing new places. Not that this has anything to do with anything else, but below are the 10-largest cities I have traveled to, in no particular order.

Atlanta—We often have to travel to Atlanta just to get where we really want to go.

Washington, D.C.—Can’t wait to do that again.

Miami—It was like a different country.

Dallas—Big buildings. Pretty flat.

New Orleans—Never want to go there again.

Indianapolis—Like Dallas.

Columbus, Ohio—Sneaky big. A lot of people, but spread out.

Charlotte—The South’s new corporate base.

Tampa/St.Pete—Good weather, lots to do.

Orlando—Tourists really compound the traffic.

Jacksonville—Largest city by square mileage.

To be honest, I prefer mid-sized cities. Less traffic, and still all of the things you really want. Guess that’s what we’ve got here.
