    I thought we weren't allowed to send you beer? Has this restriction been lifted?!

    That restriction was just a figment of his imagination. Best to send now so as to arrive before moving day. And while we still have a valid addy.....

    By the time he got it out, I’d be “settled” in the new house (11/3) :grin:

    ...true, with hint 8: I've secretively identified as a long-eared myotis since my mid-20s...

    Another day, and another hint:

    Hint #16 - You've not posted as much in this thread as I have. Hopefully you've seen these clues, and know you're not excluded.

    Previous hints:

    Hint #1 - My target lives at a lower elevation than I do.
    Hint #2 - My target does not live in the 3 states I've not had beer from (New Mexico, Rhode Island, West Virginia).
    Hint #3 - My target does not live in the same time zone as I do.
    Hint #4 - I've only been to your state once, on a layover, back in 2005.
    Hint #5 - Jerry Reed had a hit song in 1977. Said song really goes well with what we do here. The title of that song tells you which ways I'm shipping.
    Hint #6 - I could reach your state by water.
    Hint #7 - Apparently my target hasn't had many beers from my state, or surrounding states (as far as I can tell). This will change.
    Hint #8 - Your state was part of the original United States.
    Hint #9 - I have had beers from your state, and your state is somewhere in my top 20.
    Hint #10 - Trillium Brewing is apparently over in Wisconsin now, if you live in the state where it's made, I'm sorry, you're out of the running.
    Hint #11 - In 2018 I went on a vacation to a great state, that has a highly decorated WW II era battleship named after it, and said ship sits in a harbor of said state. I took the tour of the ship in 2011, and loved it. Sadly, anyone who lives in this state is excluded. I did enjoy the beers from that state when I visited in 2018, and have had 10 beers from said state.
    Hint #12 - I have had the misfortune to have a layover at Newark Airport twice. Sadly if you live in that state, you're out.
    Hint #13 - Your state has more Congressional Districts than mine does.
    Hint #14 - Your State House, and State Senate has fewer members than my state does. Your Senate has about half mine does, and your House has about 20 fewer than mine does.
    Hint #15 - The college I went to - St. Cloud State University - is in the NCHC league for Division 1 Hockey. If your state has a team in the NCHC, you're still in.

    I'll guess 19476 km (for no apparent reason).

    Reason: Beer.



    (If you missed the earlier post, I’m sending out an assortment of Alberta, Ontario and Quebec brewed beers to whoever guesses the kms on the odometer of my ‘18 Tiguan when I get back from a weekend trip to Calgary on Tuesday morning).
