I was born in New Hampshire, which is part of the New England region.
Oh nice! I'm from the northeast, but have never been to New Hampshire. What do you like about New Hampshire?
I love that there is no general sales tax or income tax.
That is a definite benefit! How is the weather in that area?
It has been a long time since I have visited, but it was so cold when I went in the winter.
I'll bet it gets really cold! Do a lot of people live in New Hampshire?
