I couldn't even find Massachusetts, though I lived there as a kid.

That's amazing, Yowie! You are to be applauded. I have trouble with
the little tiny states in the top right myself. ;-) -- Joy "You can never do a kindness too soon because you never know how soon it will be too late." _Ralph Waldo Emerson "Yowie" wrote in message u...

I got the same as Tom and had trouble with the damn RI. I feel that I had an
unfair advantage.... the last few weeks of school for my daughter (end of May) she was working on a geography project... a map of the USA. I had to help her color that damn thing, put the state names on it AND the capitals! LOL. I am sure that my old brain will slowly release that info (like a gas coming out of my ears) by the end of the summer but for today it still seems to be floating around in there!

But then, that's where I'm from. The reason I know where every state is is because I've travelled through just about all of them. On the *ground*. Actually going to a place from someplace else helps to lodge its location, and its location relative to other places, in the brain. Let's see, I know that Victoria is in the eastern part of Australia. And Tasmania (is that even a state?) is in the north. So don't feel bad, Yowie, you're doing a lot better than I am at knowing someone else's geography! Joyce |
