As I prepare to leave for my vacation, a big time appropriate* hit: Honolulu! This makes Hawaii my 25th state. :D

*Well, appropriate for the vacation theme, even if I am going to Maine, where it will be considerably cooler. :mrgreen:

So, as I said in the other thread, no hits yet on the Georges I brought to Maine, but I have gotten a couple more in Ohio and one more in Maryland (just two miles from the border of Delaware, which I still need) and a hit in Tennessee, which becomes my 26th state.

And one of the Georges I spent on vacation has reported in from Rhode Island--my 28th state! Woo hoo!

From the User's Note:
Yes, this is defiantly a bill
What's George defying? :?

You need to enter some more Georges! Your hit rate is still far better than mine, but I'm overwhelming you by sheer volume.

True and I haven't entered any lately.

Nor did I get to the pictures last night due to my wireless being tempermental last night. Will try again tonight.

Got my 1st Florida hit, but it's unrelated to my trip. Bill was entered a year ago.

State total is up to 28.

Wow! 176,537 hits!

I see she's mourning the passing of another computer-using four-footer, too. :(

I got a dollar bill yesterday with a 30 inked on it. Does that mean anything to all y'all Georgers, or maybe somebody was counting cash and wrote the amount in that pile on the bill?

I see bills with numbers written on them all the time. I usually just assume it was from someone counting and writing the numbers on the bills as they did so.....

I have seen a few phone numbers written on bills before. I give those to ES.....

Right, I think that's from businesses counting their cash to make a bank deposit.

They should write those numbers on the stack wrappers, so it doesn't distract from our WG stamps! :P
