I haven't been entering any new bills in WG since I went on my coast-to-coast trip last year. Since the COVID-19 shutdown began, I've hardly ever used cash, at all.
But one of my bills (I think one I took on last year's trip) was found in North Dakota today--my 48th state!

I'm still waiting for Mississippi, Montana, and DC.
I had no idea you were active enough in WG to get to 48 states!
MS has always struck me as an odd state for WG'ers to get stuck on, but I know there was at least one person on the site for whom it was their final state...

George is still playing this game, even if I'm not!

This checks off Mississippi*. Only Montana and DC left on my bingo card!
*Just barely, too! Northwest corner of the state, about 2.5 miles from Tennessee and 6 miles across the river to Arkansas.

OK, I'm usually annoyed when I don't get credit for an "Alternate Bill Entry", but this one is cool.

Someone found my bill just a couple weeks after I stamped it, and they took it home to California. Six and a half years later, they've found it again!

I've re-found a few of my old bills before.... but never after 7 years!
I despise Alt entries, because one of mine comes from one of the four (out of 102) counties in Illinois I haven't managed to get an official hit in yet...

Covelo looks likes it's a really isolated town in Northern California, which probably doesn't get very many outsiders circulating their currency.
It's the Hotel California for Georges!

I'm still needing Alaska, Rhode Island, and Vermont.
I didn't get Montana until I had lived in Wyoming for about 3 1/2 years.

Not only a 16+ year sleeper, but on an old style (non-big headed Lincoln) five dollar bill! I haven't seen one of those in circulation in probably a decade....

Finally got Rhode Island. Still need Alaska. I am taking an Alaskan cruise next year so I am hopeful I'll be able to complete my State Bingo.
