Re: Up and Down (and Over)

In Biblical times, people were said to go “up to Jerusalem,” even if they were traveling south, because it was uphill. Don Good (Hoping this isn’t flaunting Bible knowledge) ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/

Up and Down (and Over)

Where I grew up, in a small town in South Dakota that was very similar to Mayberry, "Up and Down" was used only to describe direction. Think of a globe.."Up" meant traveling north, while "Down" meant traveling south. "Over" was a bit more unclear..as it was used to indicate traveling east OR west.
