14..You're supposed to throw in a guess. Probably akin to Boston to Richmond.

15..Yes, VTC, but we still need that river that flows through N. Ala.

17.Maybe Elena Delle Donne knows.

18..Silly ol'bear seems to know Newfoundland's secret, sort of, but he's not looking in the right direction.

19,,VTC is half right; the other begins at Peace and exits at Eric's house.

22..Well, they're on the Amazon basin, and they ain't Peru.

25..K9 gives us the 2nd most western. Can you take it?

 

[pinotbear]

18. Yeah, after I posted that, I had a Homer Simpson moment - D'oh! - so, let's see, it'd be something like 5:30, then? (assuming the drain bammage isn't still in force).

15. I fished a couple of tournaments on Guntersville and I could not remember the name. I peeked and now I understand why.

25 - If it isn't Dover, it must be Hacketstown. To my mind, none of the others are in contention.

14..DRIVING time, VAUC, not flying. We'll compromise between the Bests, 7 1/2 hours.

15..VTC blocks all things Tennessee.

16..K9 & the 2 "V"'s with Costa Rica. Best drives into water.

17..It goes Bear, Smyrna, Dover , Milford. Georgetown, Selbyville--all in Delaware.

18..Ah, time is disorienting, especially when you don't remember that Newf has the peculiarity of differing by the
half hour. Not the same as Nova Scotia's 6, but rather 6:30.

19..Best has I-80 & I-15.

20..Milwaukee

21..Pinot & VTC on the money with W Virg.

22..No one has them both. Venezuela & Columbia.

23..Goodness, I'm taken aback over the various proposals here, but K9 & VTC have it--Alberta/Brit Col.

24..As much as he's fished in the South, VTC realizes that all but Tallahassee occupy a nearly same latitude.

25..Knights, a fan of things Jersey, grabs Hackettstown.

Sorry for the time delay in posting A & B results. Problem with my server.
Meanwhile you score 17 1/2 of 35. That's 70%. Admit it; you've been better.

Missing nothing...you called my attention to mistyping "35" instead of 25. And 70% IS based on 25.
