A childhood belief about places

I'm not sure where this would go, so I'm putting it here. When I was young, my parents bought a little weather measuring kit - you know, the kind with a wind speed guage, weather vane, etc. It came with a poster of various types of clouds, and what sort of weather they signified. Anyway, one picture had a radio tower on the horizon, its top obscured by the extremely low-hanging clouds. In order to call attention to this, the caption ended with the phrase "Note tower in background." As a result, I thought that the tower was named the Note Tower. So, whenever a relative or family friend would return from a trip, and show us a photo of scenery with a radio tower in it somewhere, I would always say "Oh! Did you go see the Note Tower, too?" And nobody ever had a clue what I was talking about.
