Rooster, I am in Canada. Nova Scotia to be precise. The Canadian provincial abbreviations (as I know them) are as follows: Newfoundland-Nfld New Brunswick - N.B. Nova Scotia- N.S. Prince Edward Island- P.E.I or The Island ;0) Ontario- Ont. Quebec- P.Q. or Que. Manitoba- MB. Saskatchewan- Sk. Alberta- Not sure..I think its Alta. Hmmm better go back to geography classes! British Columbia- B.C. Northwest Territories- NWT Nunavut- I have no idea. Its a new territory since I have been to high school geography classes. :o)

Hi Rooster, I'm in Maryland (MD), on the eastern seaboard of the United States. Actually on the "eastern shore". By that I mean east of the Chesapeake Bay. We tend to separate ourselves from the "western shore" or "across the bridge". Confused yet? I would be. LOL Actually I wanted to say that with all of our states that start with "M", I even get mixed up sometime.Especially with MO(Missouri). Guess I need glasses but MO looks like MD to me. Gloria

The TN in my emai address stands for Tennessee--beautiful mountainous state in the south of the US.
