    Gasp! There is! It is the county seat of the 4th largest county in Washington State.

    Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

    The Columbia River part throws me, I figured it meant not CAN, but since I lack the drive to figure out which Columbia River it is... (Granted, there may only be 1 of them, but I was thinking there was one in SC as well. There are a few Rivers in the US that share names, there are at least 2 Stillwater Rivers, possible more than double that)

    The Great Columbia headwaters in eastern British Columbia flows south through eastern Washington until it turns west at the Oregon Washington border. It then marks the border between the two states until it flows into the Pacific Ocean. It is navigable east into the Snake River at Caldwell Idaho. It carries more water than any river in North America. Where it flows into the ocean, the water is fresh for 6 miles out to sea. I don't think there is another Columbia River in North America.

    It;s in British Columbia, which is geographically attached to Canada, but not actually part of Canada.

    It's still subject to the French crown!

    oh come on, isn't that like saying Washington DC isn't actually part of the US?

    It's in Washington, on the Columbia River, which divides Oregon and Washington.

    It took me a while to figure out that NightHawk was pulling our legs. Check out his other posts in the thread. Hence my earlier deleted post.
