I can't find any canon for the location, and I think your reasoning is pretty sound. We know the events at the end of season one occurred in Iowa and Missouri. And that Bobby's palce was about an hour from the car accident. I'd think Iowa or Indiana could be possibilities as well.
Well, "Not far from here" is kind of relative. If Harvelle's is near Omaha, it's about an 8 hour drive or less (the way Dena drives) to Medford. And given how the boys do tend to criss cross states the way other people criss cross cities...I'd say anything within a day's drive would qualify as "not far."
Totally agreed- I was gonna say the same thing. From Sam and Dean's perspective, eight hours probably really is "not far". I'm definitely inclined to think Nebraska.
Two states isn't far. *g* I've definitely used "not far from here" to describe places that are a good ten, twelve hour drive. Maybe it's just a regional thing, but that doesn't strike me as peculiar at all. Far is all relative.
There is also a mention of Nebraska in "Simon Said," as the boys are driving to the roadhouse at night the radio is a Nebraska station. Of course, you can argue that the radio and the t-shirts are meaningless and just specifically mentioning Nebraska for no reason whatsoever, but it seems kinda silly that they would do that (twice) unless they meant for us to know the guys were in Nebraska.
