Right you are, George -
Amosen, N.D. — right across the border from Smoke, S.Dak., and just a few hundred miles west of Gravely, Ill. Go southeast a few more miles and you come to Haightnein, Tenn. and Barbyan, Ken. From there it's north and a bit east to State, Penn. If you head in the other direction you'll pass through Eyethinkeye, Kan. & Itznauer, Nebr. and eventually come to Kinked, Ut. and then Metra, Cal. Down south there's Annie, Okla. and Hittor, Miss. But of all the places served by the Grace L. Ferguson* Airline & Stormdoor Company my favorite is the small village north of Phoenix that serves as the spring training headquarters for both the Cleveland Indians and the Milwaukee Braves — Nohitsnorunsno, Ariz.
