I too am originally from southern Minnesota. In the 70's I drove truck over-the-road. No matter where I went, I got the same response "You're from Minnesota, aren't you?" Don't know what it is ??? Moved to Florida 3 years ago. Same response here. You are right, not drawl here. My wife is originally from Philadelphia, but has lived in Florida for over 30 years. Most people still pick up on her Philly accent. My step-daughter grew up in Florida, but moved to North Carolina a couple years ago. She has definitely picked up the drawl. Also, my son grew up in Minnesota, but would visit his mother (my x) in Texas every summer. He would come back home with the Texas accent, but only lasted a couple weeks, and was gone.
