From here to there

I read somewhere that "the state nearest Africa is Maine."  Of course, the first thing I did was look at a map — and then at a globe — to try to figure out if that was true.  This globe shows the Atlantic, and I can see Africa is higher than I thought and the northeast part of the United States seems tipped to the right.  Yup, Maine IS closer.  I'm amazed.

Think about getting "from here to there," write about it, and come back to share a link to what you wrote.  (Be sure you link to the actual POST, not just to your blog.)
