I thought Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming Montana were all further south down towards Arizona. Like I said shows what I know. I've never paid massive attention to where Westerns are actually set as it's never seemed terribly relevant. The size of America is nuts though. About ten years back we stayed in New York. We had a few nights in Manhattan then travelled into upstate New York for a few days to do some touring around. We had this clever idea to see Washington DC. Which on our map was about two centimetres.
5 hrs later we arrived[emoji23] Was something like a 850 mile round trip.
