My godson is doing a school project to learn about the US States. He has sent me a letter from his school with a little hand drawn cut-out picture of himself that he's named "flat Nicholas". In this letter he requests that I forward it to someone and hope they send his school a postcard of their state with a little info about themselves as well as the picture on the post card. Now I remember doing this kind of project as a kid and my letters never got around. So now I'm cheating on this and Nicholas Can't KNOW!. I'm asking Beta members in the states if they would mind sending him a postcard to his class with a picture of a place in your state and a little message to him about yourself and your state? I'd be willing to pay the postage if necessary. So far the states I have helping me out are Colorado, Texas, Arkansas, Flordia, and Alaska. If you are in a different state than those and are willing to help please post and I will PM the addy to you. It would really mean a lot to me and to Nicholas.

Just a suggestion GK, but why not scan his letter (blur the address if you like) and post it here. Then we can all say we "got" his letter. No cheating. =D
Hmmm. Do we physically have to be IN the state at the moment? because I'm from Maine...

Awww, Zag beat me to Ohio! My son did something like this a couple year ago in his class. It was really really fun! If a second Ohioan can help, let me know!

If you're close to Cincinatti, maybe you can pull Kentucky?
