You do live out in the Ocean? Fair enough.

Nobody has ever thought North Carolina was small, though. Where did that idea come from? In fact, it is not clear why the record needed a distance in the first place.

In the ocean, no, but about 30 miles inland.

I assure you, as life long resident, I have blown the minds of many non-natives by stating I can drive for 8 hours west and still not quite be in Tennessee. In most places east of the Mississippi that gets you through 3-4 states.

It's all relative, I guess. I'm looking at 20 hours of driving to get the western extent of the province. And seven hours the other way to get to the easternmost side. 8 hours is but a leisurely afternoon cruise.
