  2. I believe it will be in Vermont. The first postage stamp was printed in Vermont. Vermont is also considered the granite state (bath room counter top). The state bee is the honey bee. The photo of the flower appears to be an enlarged photo of the state flower, the red clover. It's not far from a body of water. Too many things point to Vermont.

  12. NH is the Granite State

  13. New Hampshire is known as the granite state…..I'm sure someone already posted that, lol!

    GreenisKeen on June 5, 2010 at 12:45 am
  14. I still feel my previous guess of Hawaii might be right. The granite is tropical and the sink like islands and the snake could be from there as well as the moss! I hope so!

    CAREN ARSENEAULT on June 5, 2010 at 1:42 am
  15. VT holds one of the largest granite quarries in the US

    Tammy on June 6, 2010 at 7:24 am

    Granite state of Mind parody by Jay-Z , written in upstate Vermont.

    melissa_again on June 8, 2010 at 5:57 pm
  20. New Hampshire is the Granite State. And we love our tourists. It snows in winter and we have lots of cows here. The Timber Rattlesnake is our only poisonous snake. It's NH :)

    Cathii Petersen on June 8, 2010 at 6:36 pm
  21. I think that our next Green Dream Home Giveaway will be built in Bowie Maryland.

    elsa on June 10, 2010 at 1:31 am

    elsa on June 10, 2010 at 1:36 am
  23. Granite . . . Rocky Top . . . Tennessee.

    Sharon on June 10, 2010 at 12:42 pm
  24. look at the flowers on the counter top, they look like the state flower of Vermont which is red clover

    Msmith on June 11, 2010 at 1:31 pm
  25. Golly gosh thanks for the encouragement. Isn't this fun ?

    George on May 10, 2010 at 3:00 pm
  26. There are certain people that aren't allowed in America, and who are on a certain list. I hope you're not one of them.

    Cami on May 10, 2010 at 4:04 pm
  27. What;s wrong with Americans?

    AnneEliseSouth on May 10, 2010 at 2:06 pm
  28. Wow, it's a little early in the contest for the trolls to come out — usually that's not until right before the winner is drawn. I hope that people you encounter today are better for the experience, George.

    Wyo_Girl on May 10, 2010 at 2:58 pm
  29. Now, this blog is supposed to be about Homes and Gardens. Can we please stay on the subjects? There are other chat rooms for name calling and back biting. If that is what you're into.

    AnneEliseSouth on May 10, 2010 at 4:51 pm
  30. OK, now were getting somwhere, let's just talk Home and Gardens, and we'll all get along just fine.

    AnneEliseSouth on May 10, 2010 at 5:20 pm
  31. You are a vicious little rascal. Does that run in your family or with all you americans

    George on May 10, 2010 at 7:08 pm
  32. Cami, I was trying to see what his comeback would be, if there was only positive data presented to him. He never answered when I asked what he found wrong with Americans. I think he's just looking to instigate trouble. Too bad, because we had a long run of good blogging before him and Lisa showed up. I hope the administrator will ban habitual troublemakers, especially since they had to block one of his comments. We have to try not to let negative people egg us on, because they feed on the negativity, and try to draw the positive people into it.

    AnneEliseSouth on May 10, 2010 at 7:34 pm
  33. He has had more than a few deleted. I agree quit feeding him.

    Cami on May 10, 2010 at 7:38 pm
  34. Not with an anti American on board.
