With 2024 rapidly winding down its easy to say that license plate spotting this year sucked with a capital S. I missed seeing Hawaii and New Mexico in my random search, and every state from Hawaii to Wyoming in my alphabetical search. Among Canadian provinces and territories I missed Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Yukon. Missing Alberta was a surprise but not so Saskatchewan or Yukon.
Lifer license plates this year included Greenland and Saint Pierre et Miquelon. Both are plates I never imagined I would see. Rob Parsons saw at least two Nunavut license plates in Winnipeg, Manitoba this summer, which tempted me to fly to Winnipeg to see that elusive Canadian plate for the first time. Maybe next year.
This is the first time since 2011 that I have not seen all 50 states randomly (I missed Wyoming that year) and only the second time since 1969 that I have not seen all 50 states. In the last 55 years I have never missed two states in random order.
I spent most of February (prime plate spotting time) in South America, then had knee replacement surgery that made driving around a challenge until May. By then most of the winter locusts had returned north. What's really annoying is that I saw a Hawaii in the parking ramp at Doctor's Hospital on December 31, 2023 but I could not find it anywhere after that date.
As usual before dawn on January 1, 2025 I will be driving around the parking lots of hotels and then later out to Lido Key, Mote Aquarium and the Ringling Museum parking lot searching for plates. I have no major surgeries planned for 2025 and no cruises so maybe just maybe 2025 will be a more successful year.
