Hey LT. With this dated 11/21 and Alaska as the eastern most state I had to wonder if you'd been drinking a bit this morning. LOL

But, a little checking I see you are 100% right on Alaska.

Yes, Alaska is technically the easternmost state in the United States because its Aleutian Islands cross the 180th meridian. This means it is both the easternmost and westernmost state.
