We have someone who was born and raised in Cuba…Lalenin.
[/QUOTE]
During my freshman year of college, I spent two weeks on a tour of the island, staying in Havana and Cienfuegos. I’m pretty sure lalenin never set foot in some of the Cuban buildings I entered.
My maternal grandparents lived for a time in Mayville, North Dakota. It’s a county seat and home to a college, so it’s certainly possible (but still not that likely) that a Doper other than me has been there.
I wonder if any Doper has been to or stayed a night in Arisaig, Scotland, I would guess at least a few have been to **Mallaig ** to catch the ferry. There might be a few more villages and towns that I alone of the dopers have visited.
In Florida, I doubt anyone has been to Little Gasparilla Island.
I doubt that anywhere in NY/NJ area is unique to me, though I wonder about Boonville, NY.
I think I have a winner. I don’t even know for sure where I was. If you look at a map of South Korea, there’s a city on the south west coast called Mokp’o.
Heck, Mokp’o might be a winner. But, if you get on a ferry and ride 3 hours, you get to a small island where about 50 people live. I may be the only caucasian to ever set foot on the island, but there’s no way to be sure.
How specific can we be? I was thinking there is a pretty small group of people who have been in the robot cells in the paint shop of Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Detroit Michigan… Just me, a couple of other engineers, the electrician and the robot techs.
Or maybe the top of one of the dirt piles of one of the rock quarries here in Olathe Kansas (I think Johnson County Aggregate is the name of the quarry). It just so happens to be one of the highest points in the city and a great place to be during the fireworks show.
I’d actually be really interested to swap stories with anyone who’s been there. It’s where all my family grew up and lives (but none of them are on the Dope).

I have. Have you stayed a night on the Fair Isle ?

No, I haven’t you are safe from me. I am surprised by Arisaig, we spent a day there, but I figured at best, people would just drive through it on the way to the Ferry. I know the Scottish population of dopers is fairly low and this was a sparse section of Scotland, as opposed to Inverness or even Findhorn.
We stayed on the grounds of a wonderful castle, that is now a hotel. The old Gatehouse was a B&B and had use of the Castle Grounds and Beach. It was one of my favorite places I have ever been.
I look forward to returning to Scotland some year soon.
I can’t be 100% positive, but I think I was on that island back in the 1960s.
I’ll bet no one has been to Bucksnort, South Dakota or to Tea, South Dakota. For that matter, I’ll throw in Mission Hill, South Dakota and Gayville, South Dakota.
I’ll even toss out Red Oak, Texas or Rockett, Texas.
