Today on Father's Day, some of my sons and I played Outburst, a game in which you have to guess 10 answers within a given category. One of the categories was "States that end in the letter 'A'," and given that 21 states end in the letter A, it wasn't too hard. But how many words in the English language end in the letter A? Very few. And yet, nearly half of the United States end in A. Can you name them? Which state ends in G? Which state ends in K? Which state ends in H? Which 3 states end in I? Which 2 states end in T? Which 2 states end in Y? Which 2 states end in D? 3 letters - E, N, and O - have 4 states each. Can you name them? And finally, what states end in S? Happy Father's Day to all of you dads out there. Hats off to the dads I know who regularly read this blog: PR, Jeff, Casey, and Hoss (whose artwork I will soon blog about). |
