Oh, so you're on Central time then, same as I am.  I don't think Florida is all that far away, but then again I could be wrong!  I was never all that good at geography, for obvious reasons!  I wish I could find a set of maps I used to have, where the States were broken up by region, and the outline of the state was done so that you could feel what each state was shaped like, and could judge how big it was by how big they'd drawn it on the map, and each of the capitals was represented by a dot, put about the actual capital of the state happened to be.  Texas was huge, I remember that much, but the only bad thing was they didn't have one map showing all fifty states, which I wish they'd have done, but they probably wouldn't have had enough room on one page for all that.  Still, it was a pretty neat collection.  Maybe I'll see if I can't track it down online and buy it for myself, although I think it cost quite a bit of money even when I was younger, so I'd hate to think how much it would be these days!
