50 States?
Norcal's move to Idaho got me thinking. Do we have a chiffer currently residing in each of the 50 states? (I know there are several of us in State #51)
May the joy of music be ever thine.

- Tell us something.: A long time chatty Chiffer but have been absent for almost two decades. Returned in 2022 and still recognize some names! I also play anglo concertina now.

- Tell us something.: I play whistles. I sell whistles. This seems just a BIT excessive to the cause. A sentence or two is WAY less than 100 characters.

I am currently in CA, along with several dozen others. Once in Idaho, I know of at least three other posters.

Hey, jbarter - if England will be State #51, which comes next - Wales or Scotland?
(Carefully tiptoes away from the fire)
On a more serious note, I think Puerto Rico might be the 51st state - if they want it. I seem to recall that although a majority of the Puerto Ricans want to remain with the US, a large percentage actually prefer the current status to becoming a state.
Hmm - maybe England *could* be the 51st state. That is, if Canada or Mexico doesn't beat them and become a whole slew of states first. I wouldn't hold my breath until any of these happen, though.

I know of at least one Mainer and two Rhode Islanders who post, possibly exclusively on the Flute Board. I'm pretty sure at least one person from Delaware, too.
I would have thought DC was the 51st state. Not sure if any Chiffers live within the District limits, but there are several in the area.

I think so as well...there do seem to be quite a few Chiffers from the Buckeye state...and I believe that we are diverse in terms of WHERE in the state. I'm from Steubenville, which is about 2 hrs south of you, and 5 hours east of Judy (jkrazy52). I know there are more of us as well.burnsbyrne wrote:Ohio is well represented here.
