I had no idea you had 2 time zones! Your “back east” comment made me laugh though – I always say that you know you’re from New England when you describe heading off to Rhode Island as a trip “down south”!

Definitely “Easter-er” And love that “Ohiowa”.Thanks for the history lesson, Mark. Let’s see we covered geography and now history. I guess that means math is next!

Maybe not back East, but definitely “East-er.”

And Jan, you may be gratified to learn that a small city in Nebraska, founded by former residents of both Ohio and Iowa, named their town “Ohiowa” because the town fathers couldn’t decide which it should be named after.

Hey back, Jan:

You know, I wonder if we are showing our age by expecting people to know their U.S. geography.

Too bad about the Noise in Boise. When I lived in Iowa all those years, my geographically-challenged friends thought I was Ohio. Oh, well, it has the same number of letters. Keep up the good work in whatever state you find yourself.
