Latitude 34 North - Home Page

The cities section is dedicated to the cities around the world that are located on (or close to) the 34th Parallel North of the equator. This section includes information on the city, its history and the history of the surrounding area. For cities in the US, the page will contain information about the state and in other cites around the world, the page will contain information about the country. Each page also includes information on the weather in the region, including some historical weather data.

The cities section also includes pages dedicated to defining the terms Latitude, Longitude, Navigation and the concept of Time. Have you ever heard a character on your favorite TV show or movie refers to Zulu time? Then visit "Time Zones - Zulu Time", the web page about time, to find out what Zulu time really means.

As you visit each city around the world, you will notice that the lines around the fast fact at the top of each page is a different color. The lines represent the colors of the flag of the nation that the city is in. The bars are red and green for Fes and Rabat-Salé, Morocco, and they are red, white and blue for each city in the United States.

The Historic Markers Across Georgia section includes most of the Historic marker located across the state of Georgia, including many historic markers not found on other sites. You can locate the markers by county or search by keywords in the title and text. As an example, if you want to find all of the GA Historic Markers that refer to the "Hightower Trail", simply go to the Search by Keyword Page, enter Hightower Trail in the search field and then click on the search button. A list of all of the historic markers in Georgia with the phrase Hightower Trail will be returned. You can then view the text and location of each marker individually.

Historic Markers Across Georgia also provides the waymark code and a link to the Historic marker on the Waymarking web site.

I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in November 1956 at the age of 18 months. At the time it was believed that I was the youngest known diagnosed case of diabetes. I am not a doctor nor have I had any medical training. I do not profess to be an expert or have any special knowledge about diabetes. My intent is to share a little of my life's story with you and a few things I have learned along the way.

I will be adding more information and new sections through the year, so if you don't see what you are looking for now, come back later.
