Tully, I hope you're wrong since I'm under the impression jewels is in Tennessee, birthplace of Davy Crockett.

Yes, but not for game purposes.

OCM: No.

Nick: Yes. But see above. I guess I didn't specify which Tennessee line, but I meant north of Tennessee.

Yes, OCM clued me in to my mistake. I was reading through the thread and received a phone call regarding a family member so I quickly posted something.

For my next act I think I shall get really good and drunk before making future guesses.

Sorry all. Carry on. after some coffee I'll try to return and post a guess.

No.

Nope. Maybe I should tweak my original clue to read "just north of the Tennessee line".

To be honest, I'm not even sure it's a real city, town or anything but a speck on the map!

I chose it for the name. It shares the zip with another more noteable town. If you guess that, you get the win.

So you're west of I-24, east of the Miss. R. and less than about 100mi from Owensboro:

are you east of Land Between the Lakes?

Nick's getting warmer.

Been answering your questions based on Google Maps, I promise. Y'all were getting so close at one point.

Acknowledging that Breeding gets warm, it's not west of I-24.

Arbitrarily, now: Gamaliel?
