We're very curious about that bag. AND you also were in Scotland the summer of 1983. You were 7 months old and had your first taste of ice cream there. You visited Killin, a small Scottish town on Loch Tay, the hometown of your great-great-great-grandfather David Mitchell (born 1782). At one restaurant, you were called a "bonnie bairn" and the waitress carried you around. Pretty good bag for a baby. I'm guessing the orange map areas are your questionable bags.

Are you trying to wiggling out of your own rules? Correction on Mexico, you camped and hike in Mexico and it was a Mexican lion that wanted to eat you. You just did't meet any Mexican people due to the remote and inhospitable location. I though you spent a spring break in Amsterdam. It doesn't appear to be filled in on your map. What are the rules for bagging Oceans and tectonic plates? What are the orange spots on your map? Are you trying to wiggling out of your own rules?

(I never actually knew it was called the Peachoid until today.) http://www.gaffney-sc.com/Waterpeach.htm Did you know that SC produces more peaches than GA? Apparently, there's another Peachoid in Clanton, AL, so it might not be unique, but definitely memorable. Other than that, drinking cheap beer and shooting wild animals would be reserved for those that had a little more time to spend in SC. Even more authentic: posting a Confederate flag sticker (or the real thing) prominently in the back window of your pickup truck.
