I realization that I just had this morning is that I've changed the way I'm viewing the regions of America.  Formerly, I might travel to the south and say "that is soooo southern".  Now, I'm more likely to say "that is sooo American".  It's like we've been saying that a place is sooo Italian, or sooo Japanese or sooo Russian and now we can more easily recognize the elements of America that make it so very American.  

We've only traveled a small way across, but we've found some great examples...

This is my uncle's deer stand in southern Virginia, dubbed "the condo":
