If Ken leaves Atlanta early on the 6th of February and gets to T.F. Green (Providence) or Logan (Boston) before 1:00 P.M.

Smile Smile Smile

He might decide to visit The American Sanitary Plumbing Museum in Worcester, MA.
It will be closing at the end of February.
The collection has been sold to an industry group located in Watertown, MA

You should be able to guess the second hidden location Smile

I'm pretty sure a lot of people would guess "Flushing," which is incorrect. You should have pointed out that it is not changing states.

I do not feel that I had to ensure that no one will consider an incorrect answer.

Sorry, I should have written "could" instead of "should," which made it sound like a command. My apologies.

My indelicately-phrased point was that most people have probably not heard of the answer (unless they live where you and I do), and I think it would be near-impossible for someone to guess the name of a town they don't know. YMMV.

I do not expect that many board readers will know the current location.

I hid it so those who do know that piece of trivia can say: I knew that.

I feel that the second location is guessable. For one thing Flushing is a rather large section of Queens County, New York.

I do not know if my brother who lives in Queens feels he has to need to state that he does not live in Flushing.
In case you are interested, he lives south of the east west parkway, near the southern end of Main Street, Queens.

Where does he live if I'm not interested? :-)

It's like all those game show hosts who sign off "So until next time, I'm John Smith."

Really, and who will you be next time?
