Lets see if I can be the first to put up this blue clicky: this thread goes around every few months and is probably due for another spin. Last one was six months ago.

Who me? Lanark County Ontario Canada.

Not stupid at all, Lena. If you go to the Quick Links and drop down the menu, then choose Mudcat Resources, you will find a Mudcat Locator which lists countries of those who have chosen to be listed.

In addition there was a really long thread a while back called Mudcat (THE WORLD) let us know where you are.

If I remember right there were a couple more, too, BUT they all got really long, so it is always nice to have a new one come about...makes for easier reading and we get to learn about newbies, too, so thanks for starting this one!

I am in Wyoming.

Kansas City, Missouri. (Yes, there is a Kansas City, Kansas. It's smaller, and usually if you just hear Kansas City, it's understood to mean MO.)

I wouldn't mind seeing Australia, though I might prefer it during the summer.

Currently. Southern central Sahara. Good tanning options, no rain. The folk scene is also a little arid.

Usually. Gosport Hampshire, UK. lots of rain, few tanning options but better folk scene.

Am in: Pittsford, Vermont, USA. Near west side of Vermont, about halfway up. When people in this part of the country, but outside the state, ask where it is, I usually just say "near Killington" because that's the only thing near here that they've ever heard of.

Would like to be in: The more mountainous parts of Wyoming/Montana/Idaho/Utah. Usually, but not this month. I understand they're roasting out there.

Would like to see Oz and NZ someday. Would also like to wander around Scotland and Ireland (not the part with all the shooting) on foot. But I won't go without my guitar, and the airlines would lose it or break it, so I don't know if I'll get around to it.

I'm in Nashville, Tennessee. Don't let the "Music City" misnomer fool you! If there's a folk scene here I don't know about it.

I would like very much to go to Ireland and see my friend Melissa. Plus I would like to visit Scotland, Germany, Holland and Turkey. Failing that, a trip to the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia might suffice...

Born and raised in California. My parents were born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, and when I was a kid, I picked up on their accent and spoke with a few Brooklynisms. For years, people first meeting me assumed I was from New York city. The accent has faded over the years, though it pops up again when I'm around New Yorkers.

I left Fairbanks, Alaska, and ran out of gas in Tallahassee, Florida, which is located in the northern panhandle of the state. Go figure ... Those from Southern Georgia (USA) refer to Tallahassee as "occupied Georgia." It is hotter than the hinges of hell, here, with temps over 100 degrees and humidity the same (and no rain). But ... we have real good air conditioning.

Right now, I'm at work in St. Paul, Minnesota, U.S. I go home to Minneapolis, which those who grew up here assure us newcomers is REALLY a different city (ya, sure, you betcha). But I'm originally from Vermont, and will always be a rural New England Yankee at heart.

Oh, and I'm pretty new to the Mudcat, too.

Originally I was from Brooklyn NY, went to Lost Angeles and My tank was bigger the Moonchilds I ran out of gas in Miami.

Maybe if they can get the sun to shine East of here, I sure would love to go back to Ireland and Scotland again. Theres nothing like Guinness in Cork in August, for me that is.

For the past 14 years, Inland Southern California(USA). Iwas born in San Diego, raised in New Jersey (which helps to explain my admiration for Springsteen) then back to SoCal when I was 17. I would rather be on vacation, but that will have to wait until August 1st. I'll be heading for the 4 (of the lower 48) US states that I haven't been to yet--Minnesota, Wisconsin & both Dakotas

I'm not new to Mudcat, just back after about a year & a half away...
