    We are in the very southern part of Utah and with quite a different climate than the rest of Utah.

    So we have been referred to as Utah's 'Dixie'.

    It was almost a full moon, and with the clouds lit up, it was kinda cool.

    In the vernacular, "dixie" refers to that region of the US south of the Mason-Dixon Line and east of the Mississippi River (generally VA, WV, NC, SC, GA, AL, LA, TN, KY) - the "Suthun States".

    By extension then, the "Dixie" part of UT would be referring to the southern part of that state.

    BTW - It's not a dumb question, but rather a request for information to which you had not yet been exposed - that's intelligence in action!

    to add,
    since the pioneer days its been refered to as utahs dixie since being so far south of utah settlements (mainly salt lake city)....
    even the college masscot/ name is the "dixie rebels"...(though thats soon to change since them damn yankees from U of U have taken over.....)


    looks like you cleaned up the d300?

    Yeah, so far. I do like it. Its fustrating when I see such awesome pictures on this site with all your digital images and mine after 3 weeks of owning it look so bad.

    I'll most likely take the 300 to Costa Rica next month, then maybe see what I still think then.

    I noticed spots in the first pic, but I hope them are just the stars.headscratch.gif
