M5K - Your quiz shames me. All of this is bringing up flashes of elementary school... it all seems vaguely New Jersey-ish - but I think it's actually Pennsylvania.
The only one I know for sure is #2 - Valley Forge. And #3 is obviously a Frank Lloyd Wright house... it's probably called Falling Water or something suitable like that.
#5 is downright cruel because I know there are clues in the text but I can't actually read any of them.
Boooo on this week's quiz for pointing out that I have completely lost touch with my roots.
Pennsylvania!
1. Independence Hall
2. Washington Crossing the Delaware River
3. Falling Water - outside of Pittsburg (still on my to do list.)
4. Pittsburgh?
5. The battle of Gettysburg - been there a time or two.
It's our neighbor to the east, Pennsylvania! Howdy, neighbor!
