What states are not represented here?

Rat,
I am sure we have the Southeast covered. Glancing at the map North Dakota, South Dakota and Idaho don't bring anyone to mind, though I am sure there will be someone I have talked to for years? /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I'm just wondering and gotta ask... ( What states are not represented here? )

Is that not similar to saying, "all of you NOT present, please raise your hand"??? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Richard in Tennessee but from Ohio...

It's purely from familiarity. I know many of the states represented. I always check out those closest to me. Northern California has many, Harv, RobertN, Glue Guy, and many more. Washington and Oregon are well represented. Wyoming has CNoel, Texas has a plethora, but Nevada, I don't know, I don't recall a Nevada. On the East, we have gobs over there, but the states back there are so small that I forget where, how many and even their shape. Lets see, Tennessee, isn't that the one that looks a little like the Chevy emblem? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Rat...

made me laugh... When the wifey & I were putting down our flagstone (broken up pieces, not square), we'd be searching for "X" shape...and would say, "I need California, or Ohio, or Texas.... /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif and would use that system to try to find the piece we needed to fit our next spot.

I can deal with Chevy

Mark,

I agree 100% with you! In fact, I asked that question in the News/Feedback forum, and Muhammad replied that the feature would be back soon. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I think it was lost when the entire site was re-configured quite awhile ago. Just hope it comes back soon! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Hi Timex. Welcome. I'm from eastern AZ, but get over your way several times a year. A few years back, I spent 2 months on a job detail in the Espanola valley. Where are you located?

Timex · Aug 5, 2003

Hi yourself, Jyoutz. We are in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, the original rancho of the Duke of Alburquerque (original spelling). This town was incorporated in 1958, but originally settled in 1660, and is home to (or at least was since it's for sale) Al Unser, Jr. and a host of serious business owners and long time local residents who, unfortunately, are selling the family farms for development. This is horse country - race and show horses.

We bought our place about 13 years ago before prices went through the roof from some long time residents who were too old to care for it. We have kept it as a farm, upgraded the 1926 vintage house, built a modern barn and other outbuildings, planted 150 fruit trees, and have an annual garden we call the "cash crop". The latter refers to intent only. We will not get rich selling produce, but it is part of the "Good Stuff" of life.

Best...Timex
