Do you know the only location in the US where the boundaries of four states join in one place?

Posted the answer in the comments, if you want to see it.

Well, I guess I was too slow. Nice to meet you, though.

It's called "Four Corners" for an obvious reason.
Americans don't look at maps too much, do they? Unless they are home school kids being crammed for the National Geo Bee, that is.....

I live in New Mexico, so I knew this already.

I remember the national geography bee school competition being held in my middle school. I went pretty far with "potomac river" but it got harder after that. I don't remember which question I screwed up on.

I live in CO, so I've been there. I have a picture of myself sitting on the monument at that spot, yep, my butt's so fat it's in four states at once! We also drove around it and timed ourselves to see how fast we could drive through four states. We thought it was hilarous, I'm sure the people manning the booths there have seen it all a million times, though ;-)
