U.S.A.: Greetings from North Carolina

North Carolina
Tree: Pine
Capital: Raleigh
Statehood: November 21, 1789.
The card shows Wright Brothers' plane. The brothers were actually from Ohio where the sender lives. And had built their plane in Dayton, OH. But the actual flight happened in North Carolina. So the two states competed over the honor to be on the stamp with the plane. Look who won :)

Private swap. Thanks, Erin!
