Do you own any clothing which contains the colors of your nation's flag?
Not intentionally. I have this top I love that is reddish bluish, but it's meant to be more bisexual flag colors... It's borderline between that and red and blue.

Does your home contain any decorative items which are emblems related to or associated with your nation?
No. I can't see me flying the American flag ever again. Only state flags.

Name some national parks which you have visited.
I'm drawing a blank. Surely there's been something...

Have you ever camped in a national park?
See above.

What is the northernmost place you have visited?
Cleveland, Ohio.

What is the southernmost place you have visited?
Orlando, Florida.

Name the largest lake you have ever seen.
When I went to Cleveland, OH, I was able to go see Lake Erie.

Have you ever been in a desert?
Western Oklahoma is a bit deserty is it not? IDK.

Have you ever walked or skated on a frozen lake?
Lakes don't get frozen enough to walk on them down here in the lousy South. lol

Have you seen a geyser do its thing?
No.

How many U.S. state capitals can you name?
I can easily tell you exactly where every state is located by name, but I can't tell you each state's capitol. Sorry. lol

Can you name your state's flower and state tree?
Oklahoma's state tree is the Red Bud... I think? I don't know the flower. However, I do know that our state vegetable is a fruit. Just goes to show how Oklahoma is with science.

Name one thing that your state (or province) is famous for.
Probably the Native American history.
