. . . I giggled yesterday a bit, when I passed a sign in Iowa pointing off to "Hawkeye Point -- the high part of the state -- 1,670 feet"! I realize that may sound pretty high if you live in Florida or Louisiana, but folks from the western part of this continent will likely be as amused as I was. (Why, Minnesota goes all the way up to 2,301 feet!)

 

 

And Maryland goes all the way up to 3,360 feet!

 

But hey, those punk kid mountains out west haven't been around since before trees existed . . .
