Regionally Speaking

 Today's post features some more regional words/phrases that if you don't happen to be a local may leave you scratching your head. Cackalacky is the locals name for North Carolina, aka the Tar Heel State. Pogonip comes from the Shoshone language and translates to white death in Nevada, it is a dense icy fog and a real thing in north of the state. When in Rhode Island you might want to order an awful awful which is a trademark name for an awful big and awful good milkshake locals and tourist alike swear they're awfully good.
