One of my minor collecting goals for 2021 is to finish my quest to trade with someone in all 50 states. I posted about this a couple of years ago and am now down to 11 states left. If you live in one of the states listed in the subject, shoot me a trade request, even if it's just 1 card PWE. I'd love to complete the US map and hopefully move on to crossing off all of the Canadian provinces.
My original post is here: https://www.tcdb.com/Forum.cfm/Page/G/ID/0/?MODE=VIEW&ThreadID=14088#80415
My current map is here: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1Zb49efl6Mg9zuSBD7cW7MQyrzBE&usp=sharing
I appreciate everyone who's already traded with me across North America. It's amazing to see it on the map!
Let's trade!

I'll be in Maine in September. If you still need it then, I can mail you a card from there. That may not count for your records though.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster. |

I'm in NM. I'll look through your list and see what might work!

He staed someone in all 50 states, not that they had to live there. Just saying.....

Good point. I'm there for about 5 days for a camping trip, every Labor Day for almost 20 years. I can get one of my friends' addresses in advance and he could mail a card so it's there when I arrive, and I could drop my card in a Poland or Gray mailbox when I get there. If he still needs Maine by September. That's almost better than a trade with a resident, due to the planning required!

Got me to looking. I've traded with 44 States, missing WV, WY, MT, ID, DE, AK.
-------------------------------
Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them. |

Off topic, Chuck, if you're in NY rather than VA when I pass through in September, we really need to hang out. I already got an extra travel day approved at work, so I got 3 days to get from Paris IL to Poland ME, and I pass right through Troy (I flew when I had a crappy car, but no more).

Thanks for the offers to help guys! I guess in my mind I'd prefer it to be someone actually living in the state. Some of my OCD-ishness coming out with that I suppose.
Chuck, you're close. We share some of the same states so I'm assuming it might be difficult to cross those off. Particularly the Western states. Maybe hobby family on Twitter can help....
Shout out to @deadhead11 for hooking me up with @EvanPugh to knock off ND. 10 to go!

I spent several days in Nebraska this last fall if that counts.
