I currently live in the area of Port Richey, Florida. Some examples of the physical systems near Port Richey, Florida are bodies of water such as the Gulf of Mexico and the Tampa Bay. Another example of a physical system in my area is its weather, which, unfortunately for us, is pretty bipolar. Florida’s weather is rainy, hot, dry and humid all at the same time. In the place that I live, most recreational activities include: golfing, going to the gym, and going for a walk. Port Richey, in my opinion, is definitely a human region due to its similarity in language and culture. We have an array of human systems but one of the most recognized is our variety of hotels. We built hotels in our area to encourage tourism and people to stay and invest in our city. Port Richey is a relative location of Tampa and St.Pete.…

I grew up in Titusville FL, a small town know for being the perfect viewing spot to watch the space shuttles launch from Cape Canaveral. The town was so small I could walk from one end to the other with in an hour. My favorite thing to do was to walk to a nearby lake and relax with with my friends, we would fish and climbed tree for…

The Atlantic Coastal Plain of Florida covers the entire eastern part of the state. It is a truncated, smooth plain stretching from 30 to 100 miles in thickness. This is one of the three main land regions in Florida. The other two are the East Gulf Coastal Plain and the Florida Uplands.…
Growing up in Forrest City Arkansas, there was not much to do, fields for miles and not a chance at seeing a tree. But forty miles away, I could not say the same, the pearl of the Mississippi River, Memphis Tennessee. I spent a lot of time there growing up, just because there was not anything to do where I was from, and a whole lot to do in Memphis.…
I have lived in Texas all my life, Fort Worth, and I have traveled to multiple countries and states but there's no place like home. Being a fortunate person, I've been able to meet people from all over. I met most of these people off a cruise I went on with my family porting out of Galveston. As you know during the summer cruise ships are known as the most thought of family or couple vacation. While I was on the cruise I met a significant amount of people from all regions of Texas. As surprising as it may sound traveling around Texas alone could be a summer vacation with all the different activities and sceneries that it hostess.…

Lastly, Houston’s biggest imperfection is being too enormous. A trip from one side of town to the other side of town takes hours. That seems like a never-ending trip. When your searching for something in Google map you’ll see it far from your current location. Houston population is immense adding to the axiom “everything bigger in Texas”.…
