I'm bored, need ideas for stamps, quisps, hitch hikers and/or plants. Hubby proved today that he can help me find them so now we can plant some!

I wish more stamps were somehow related to the location in which they are planted. Researching the local history is one way to get ideas.

And by "somehow related" I mean that very loosely. For example (these are some of mine):

Bottom of an enormous cliff -- "Toonsis the Driving Cat" (from Saturday Night LIve, the cat always drives off a big cliff)
Roosevelt Forest -- A series about FDR
A park next to the headquarters of AIG - "The Great Recession"
Place where I found an unusual marbled salamander -- "Marbled Salamander"
The Mohawk Trail -- Stamp based on the flag of the Mohawk Nation

Just different ways to incorporate the location into the theme of the stamp.
