So of the mugs in the style above, we now have

Washington DC

Waikiki
Charlotte
Houston
Dallas
London
Toronto
San Francisco
San Diego
Calgary
North Carolina
Detroit
Glasgow
Las Vegas
St Louis
India
California
Atlanta
New Orleans
Frankfurt
Cologne
Vancouver

Many of those were picked up on the great family reunion road trip of 2012 but others have trickled in over the years.

The challenge is that I don't think Sbux has that line in stores any more b/c they've swapped out for the shorter, stockier "You Are Here" series :(

Dare I say that I will be driving through Baltimore this Saturday?

The nearest Starbucks to me is 30 miles away. If I'm close to one, I'll give it a look-see. Or, if I happen by some poor smuck with a mug held loosely in his grubby paws, I'll grab it and run. If he catches up with me, there maybe a little blood on it. Mine probably. That OK?

how close are you to Baltimore?  :)

I just drove through there yesterday.  Not planning on going back anytime soon, though.
