I never once heard that at all, but as with many other states, the western part is foreign to those of us from Eastern MA and Cape Cod. I don't think it's something that the state is really known for though, and I think many of the farms have dwindled from the 50s.

I was surprised that the pattern didn't have Spokane that's why I added it. And then I was reducing the trees up north, that's why I added Bellingham and I put Yakima in place of the potatoes.

I was hoping that, "Walla Walla", would be on the map of Washington.<br /><br />I reckon I could try to thumb a ride along your maps.
