Happy New Year everyone! ?? ?

Yikes with the drivers around here I'm glad they're tethered by gravity. All I need is a bunch of white compact SUVs coming at me from every which way.
I posted early about receiving my gift but wanted to wait to open it til Christmas - forgetting that I was spending Christmas with family in Massachusetts. Long story short, opened my gift yesterday and could not be more delighted.
I actually haven't had Mississippi River in quite some time (not its original not-boozy blend at least) and the other two are new blends to try. I've never had the luck with Cringle Flake so cannot be more grateful for a tin.
Thank you thank you thank you!

There is a Yale, Illinois population 87 (2021). Southern Illinois near the Indiana border. Famous for there mug tree. A tree with an outhouse on top and covered with assorted mugs. Due to rotting roots and heavy rains it fell over in December 2015.
86 as of 2010! My first map search did not turn it up, but Google maps have it.

Look at the fun lined up!
"Free entertainment galore for children and adults.
Big bologna parade, fireworks, crowning of the King and Queen of Bolognaville, Outhouse races, cardboard boat races, bologna ring toss, craft show, Car Show, pony rides, and vendors."
Wow. You guys are really trying your hardest to get this thread to 100 pages…
There are more but the spelling was off, there is Vriesland (Friesland in Dutch, but is a province), Pella in Iowa which actually isn't a city in the Netherlands but has one of the highest concentrations of Americans with Dutch ancestory, some even speak a dutch dialect. I suppose there are bunch of Hollands (which is by the way historically correct, Holland was before the union the west part of now The Netherlands, but now not relevant anymore) and there is one Netherlands in TX. I found the Dutch history in present day Americana very interesting. The names I picked are almost all are in rural area's in the Netherlands and are also settled by farmers emigrated after WW2 to the USA or even earlier from the earliest era of settlers, only Rotterdam is a major city I live near by, almost 1 million people and the largest port city of Europe (ports stretch here for 40km from the almost city center to the sea).
If we only not sold New York for a few packs of cigarettes called Stuyvesand now.....
Holland, Michigan comes to mind, and it's surrounded by a number of names that sound Dutch to me! (Zeeland, Overisel, New Holland, Vriesland, Drenthe)
