Re: Name 3 things you love about the state you live in.
I love the broad diversity that exists in so many regions of our state - unquestioned differences that are just accepted as the way things are
I love the green cities and open spaces
And I especially like the beautiful native plants and trees that are hanging in there with us still despite all our abuses

Re: Name 3 things you love about the state you live in.
I live in beautiful southern California!
Other than having my family living within 10 miles or closer, what I love about my state:
1. It only takes me about 45 min. to the beach & about 2 hours to the mountains
2. We are the entertainment capital
3. and more than #1 & #2 I love with passion that I can see my Los Angeles Dodgers as often as I want

Re: Name 3 things you love about the state you live in.
Ok, I'm having a really hard time with this because I'm not a HUGE fan of Missouri and am excited to move in a few months. So I figured I'd do both MIssouri and my home state of Connectcut!
Missouri:
I love the lower cost of living.
I love that it's the first state I've lived in where I can get Sweet Tea EVERYWHERE! I've become a sweet tea addict!
I love the safety and relaxed feel of the town I live in.
Connecticut:
You can be sitting on the beach with your feet in the ocean one hour and hiking dense mountains the next.
I love the seasons.
I love the history and connection to the land that it holds for me.

I'm not saying forget what you lost
I suppose there's a purpose in pain
What we make of ourselves has a cost
And it's paid every time we take hold of the reins

Re: Name 3 things you love about the state you live in.
In Georgia-
It's almost as good as Texas, I can grow almost anything and we don't get snow this far south!
I'm only 30 minutes from Jacksonville Florida and 20 minutes from Fernadina Beach.
Cumberland Island is right down the street from where I live!

Your list is making me miss Texas, but I do LOVE Georgia:
Love all the trees
Love how friendly people are
Love being able to see so many different birds in my backyard
