You got it! That was too easy. Just for that, the next one will have to be really hard. ;-)

Ehemmmm... to easy??? remember I have never set foot in the USA. THAT was shere luck that I found it. It started with me finding a Golfcourse with a "similar" looking mountaine that turned out to be your mountaine =))

I guess Google has gotten too good.

Here's one that maybe won't be too hard. What is the name of this town? (For the purpose of this game, I use the word town in the most general sense. It could be anything from a major city to two houses and an abandonned gas station.)

I studied for my test yesterday.;-) I had it today @ 8:00a.m. & was thru with it @ 8:30. I know now that I had better take better (or more detailed) notes. He didn't go by the book much.

Here's a weird rectangle state factoid: a percentage of all alcohol sales in this commonwealth go to the "Johnstown Flood Relief Fund", whatever that is. I think they fixed it a long time ago

L.A. (Canoga Park), CA(Zone 10a)

"The" Johnstown Flood was in the 1880s but there have been others since then. The last that I know of was around 1980. Still, that should be paid off by now. Sounds like another govt rip-off to me, but what do I know. ;-)

I assume that everyone knows about the original Johnstown flood, but just in case, here's a fairly short summary. http://www.jaha.org/FloodMuseum/history.html
