A search on Harry Truman, mountains, and Lake brought up the Harry
Truman who died at his Mt. St. Helens Lodge on Spirit Lake.
Is that Spirit Lake?
You got it, George. Your turn.
Ah, George. That is a beautiful photo. Makes me sorta wistful. U.S.?
Yes, that's in the U.S. (and has been from the start).
Hmmm. That must be a hint, George. One of the original thirteen?
Ok, then. Might as well start with No.1. Virginia?
North.
I have canoed under that very bridge.
(But I didn't hear any shots.)
The shot heard round the world. Concord, Mass?
Yes!
By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.
Love it, George. Who wrote that one? I could look it up, but that would be silly when you can tell me quicker.
My word, George, it was Longfellow.
Where am I and what is the significance?
No it wasn't. It was Emerson.
Hint:
Huey Long, "The Kingfish", in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Well, my goodness, Francis. How did you do that? You're right, of course. Raggedyaggie just informed me that Camille was written by Alexander Dumas. What a surprise that was.
Your turn, honey.
