Location: Upper Left USA | I just found there was an Unofficial Tacoma Guitar Club where a bunch of old guys talk about their prized possessions and complain that their Wives won't let them get another guitar...
One of the posts had this "Frapper site:

Can someone smarter than me set this up for the OFC? |

According to the FAQ, you have the power. Please delete my name so I can re-enter it correctly. My happyass fingers added a "k" to my name. |

Blues Not so far.
Perhaps Nils, Cardinal Flyer and myself should found the "Ovation Owners of Oregon".
OOOO. That would look good on a business card. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | Cardinal flyer needs to get on there to see if they can figure out where Hermiston is. I know there is another occasional poster on here from Idaho and Willard in Wisconsin used to live here, but I can't think of anyone who posts here regularly in between us. I always did hate that drive. Now I have another reason--no Ovations.
Dave, Boise is where they have the blue turf. The last time I was in Phoenix somebody asked me if Boise was where they had bluegrass and my fist thought was she had us confused with Kentucky, then I thought she was talking about the Weiser Fiddler Festival. |

Location: the BIG Metropolis of TR | WAY COOL! I just got back from visiting Schroeder!(He wasn't home I guess but I heard the telly going and I thought I heard voices wispering but no one came to the door.....)
Actually I clicked on his name and then zoomed in(go a little at a time or it'll tell you there are no images available)until I was right on his street(Rosebery Ave. across the street from Arlington way)which is probaby not his true address but I bet it's close! COOL!
I zoomed all the way in on my name also and (I wasn't home either....strange :confused: )came up about 2 miles north of my actual address....which I gather that since I didn't put my physical street address in just the zip code....It just shows the "center" of the postal code.
But anywho it's still NEAT....Give it a try!!
(Drop on by but not right now.....I'm going to bed it's late and I just got back from London! Good night) |

At the bottom of the map there are larger photos.
You have 5 and I thought we could only have one. I must be missing something besides all the beautiful guitars I've seen. |
