Do you know a mnemonic for the 32 counties? (Something perhaps along the lines of Tom Lehrer's Elements?) We have 39 counties here in Washington (the other Washington, that is), but I have no idea how I would teach someone who wasn't good at just rote memorization of lists the names of 'em all. Much less where they are on the map (I'm not sure I know them all myself).

PS Of course like most of the US although we have counties we've never had counts. (Or Earls.)
