However I'm guessing "the weather" is not one of them. ;) I don't think we can boast much countryside as beautiful as Maine either, but that may just be familiarity talking.
so sneering at tourists is in my blood
I'm from Devon. Similar set-up. Also, I used to have a lot of fun times being harrassed by cow-people from Ohio wanting to know a) where the Mayflower Steps were and b) why there wasn't a huge fanfare around them, and they didn't like "because this is a working harbour and people are still using them GO AWAY AND LEAVE ME ALONE" very much.
A pretty good life-changing moment all the same. The weird thing is, I tend to prefer American dramas at the moment - well, usually HBO/BBC co-operations - because ours have been a bit ... weak. And it's always the lighting you notice first. I swear to all the gods you can tell who produced a program by how it's lit.
