License Plate Game 2010

My friend Kathy just passed on this great warm-up for the our annual summer event: The License Plate Game How well-traveled are you?

Ten days into License Plate Game 2010, and I have 40 states! Surprisingly, I have 3 left that should be pretty easy to get: Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi. The other 7 are traditionally difficult to find. Wish me luck!

Playing the license plate game with 26 days to go!

Waiting for my trip to Italy, I am playing my favorite game. The license plate game runs from Memorial Day weekend until Labor Day weekend. My friends and family have been playing this game for more years than I can remember. The goal is to find all fifty states. Rules include only plates found in your metropolitan area are eligible. As of today, I have 34/50 states sited. I hope this year is better than last year--the worst year for the license plate game EVER! I like the image of "USA Map" created by Aaron Foster using authentic license plates.
