out of high school.

I am hitting the road tomorrow after my dentist appointment. I get to see Spokane again, twice. On the way to Montana and on the way home. No gas prices are stopping me from going. I went a whole month buying nothing except for food and paying my bills and getting new tires for my car and having the alinement fixed.

Yes I am in Montana. It's where my family is.
People go through Montana BTW. I have seen out of state license plates here.

It was a bit of sarcasm :D Montana is just about the last state people think about...and funny thing is some people dont even know it IS a state. I admit I was one of those people when my family moved here from Seattle, but I was only a kid at the time. Where in Montana are you? East/West/Central...?

That's weird, considering its size.

Yeah, but population is near to zero as Wyoming. :lol: Well, compared to states like California and NY. At least Texas has people and people who know where it is. :wink:

Very weird. How can people miss the state when they are looking at the map of our country?

I heard back in the days you couldn't pass 5th grade if you didn't know all your US capitals. I think this was around when my parents were kids. I was told this when I was in 8th grade by my special ed teacher. I don't know when the schools stopped doing it.

What's weird that except for El Paso, all the major cities in Texas are east of Interstate 35.
