Oceanic coastal state, yes.
But not Virginia, no.
I am into the Spirit of America -it's a Credit Union. I have an account there. But it's in Nebraska. A long way from where I am.

I'm in an Atlantic coastal state, but I'm north of Virginia.

How 'bout the first state, Delaware? (unc, she wore a new jersey)

Sorry unc, not New Jersey.

Nick: Not Delaware.

OCM: Oh, duh, The Spirit of America, like on Massachusetts license plates. But no, in this thread I'm not in Massachusetts.
But this other "Spirit..." from Cape Cod, Spirit of America Band might offer another cryptic clue.

I'm not spreading anything in New York City, blue eyes.
I would neither run, Norwalk to Connecticut. I'm not there, either. I'm not watching for a great fish...

I'm in a coastal state, North of 40º latitude. Not in Maine, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Delaware, Massachusetts, Connecticut or New York City.

Neither Hillary's county nor Benjamin's.

Not many counties left, but my location is in a county whose name might musically be associated with airplane or starship. A two-headed nickel coin would have two of him.

My location has a two word name, and the second word would musically be associated with something that usually has two heads.

Sure. Canada's on the other side of the St. Lawrence River. Same way Illinois borders Iowa across the Mississipppi.

I-81 runs right up the middle of Jefferson County and crosses the St. Lawrence River into Canada on the Thousand Island Bridge, where it turns into Canada Route 137. I'm about ten miles east of Watertown, NY.

Ft. Drum is where I am. So, I have two heads, you can beat me, and there's a little town (wide spot in the road) called Herrings, (a small fish) NY a few miles SE of Ft. Drum. Turned out to be a red herring, eh. Was I too cryptic?

Anyways, BadNick, you're it.

Victory acknowledged!

While I fantasize what I might be doing in Ft. Drum, I'll find a new place to hide. I do have fond memories of eating fresh, raw herring in coastal regions of the Netherlands, spoiled only by drinking too much jenever with those crazy fucking Dutch.
