 The staff of Southern States welcomes you to the friendliest Forum on Delphi, a place to visit and learn about Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Louisiana, Texas, Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, West Virginia, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Delaware - from events and places to see to weather, sports, lotto and news. Join us for a "Taste of Dixie" as we look at the culture, food, history and happenings in the South.
 From Atlanta's new South skyline and Olympics to Mardi Gras on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, from the charm of old Savannah's Spanish moss draped oaks to the bluegrass of Kentucky, from the casinos of Biloxi to the hot springs and diamond mines of Arkansas, from the home of Elvis in Memphis to the Grand Ol' Opry in Nashville, from the mountains of North Georgia to the Space Center in Huntsville, from the Hill Country of Texas to the Carolina coast, from the nation's capital to the St. Louis Arch, and from the beaches of Florida to its magical Disney World, join us as we explore and enjoy the South.
 So stop by, grab an iced tea (sweet of course) or a mint julep, and sit a spell on our Dixie Porch.
Our forum is full of information - events of interest, regional news/sports, lotto results, weather, and discussions about everything from Southern food to politics.
