March License Plate Report
With all this A to Z Challenge excitement, the March License Plate Report is late late late, but here it is at last. A short list but a good ‘un. Georgia isn’t a big deal, but the East Coast is … Continue reading
February License Plate Report
February’s short, but it wasn’t a bad month: Indiana, South Carolina, Arizona, and Virginia are now on the map. (IIRC I first spotted Virginia before South Carolina, but I didn’t write it down.) My neighbor from up the road, Tom … Continue reading
January 2018 License Plate Report
In the license plate game the turn of the year brings a shot of adrenaline. The waning months of the old year are, in a word, boring. Dispiriting even. Island traffic is way down from its summer peak, though not … Continue reading
2017 Year-End License Plate Report
As you’ve probably guessed, 2017 closed with the map looking exactly as it did at the end of September. It wasn’t a bad year at all. I spotted plates from 45 different states. AWOL at the end were Alaska, Montana, … Continue reading

When July ends, I damp my expectations way, way down. Pickin’s are always slim in the last five months of the year, and in a few years they’ve been nonexistent. So spotting Nebraska! and Kansas! in the first week of … Continue reading
July License Plate Report
After June’s record-breaking tally of nine, July’s yield of precisely one — Wyoming — was a bit of a letdown. Pickings are always slim in the second half of the year, and it’s not because there’s a shortage of cars. Traffic … Continue reading
June License Plate Report
Woo woo! June was the best month ever in recent memory for the license plate game:Â nine new sightings. Consulting maps back to 2011, I find a high of six and a low of three. Nine beats ’em all, and they … Continue reading
