The Continental Divide

A few years ago, during MINI takes the States, GPMINI & I crossed the “Continental Divide” – the imagined line down the continent determined by whether rain runs off Eastward or Westward; on the divide, all West rain goes West, and all East rain goes East (and never the twain?)

So … who knew, there’s more than one Continental Divide! And today we stumbled on another one – the Eastern Continental Divide:

I wonder where the rain goes that gets trapped between the Divides … down the Mississippi I suppose!
