An under-average January generally gives way to an above-average February, and that was the case for 2013. The typical January tally is over 25. This year’s was 23. The usual February take is 3. This year I spotted 6: Indiana, Virginia, Nevada, Maryland, Utah, and Minnesota. Virginia and Maryland usually show up in January. This year they, or I, was a little late.

I keep track of cars I see in NJ with Vineyard stickers … not as many as you see Jersey cars on MV π

Inspired, I kept a tally in Asheville. To my surprise, I spotted all but 6: Alaska, Kansas, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming. Also garnered Quebec and Ontario.

It’s amazing how people get around, isn’t it? Quebec and Ontario are pretty common on MV too. The rest of the Canadian provinces are rare. I’ve seen a few Nova Scotias over the years, and one or two Newfoundland/Labradors, a Manitoba, and an Alberta, but that’s pretty much it.
