Ah--

Not the same thing at all: but I have East Coast (specifically Philadelphia/New Jersey) friends who speak of "going down the shore". When someone objects to this locution, Alice responds: "Don't you say you're "going down the cellar"? Both incorrect, and probably this takes us back to the question of archaisms.
