I think I know where Foster's is located!

Goofball's creator came from Canada by train in 45 minutes say maybe the border then that would take them to Bellingham, Washington

I'd say that's pretty much dead on the money, there! The distance from Canada by train is right, there are some beaches nearby, and the mountainous terrain is right(though a bit more mountainous that what we see on the show), as is the weather. The town is about the right size for whatever town we see on Foster's-small and old enough to have that quaintness about it, yet still large enough to have big concerts, multi-level malls and five-star restaurants.
Another Washington state town, Grapeview, is found about an hour further south, but has more beach access, and is not as mountainous as Bellingham(more hilly, like what we often see on the show), and it actually DOES have a Wilson Way! Even though it's more distant from Canada, you also have to consider the VERY strong possibility that Goofball's estimations could have been WAAAY off, given that he wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer! Either of those towns would be a very good candidate, but either way, I'd definitely say that the show takes place in Washington State.

There is a Wilson Avenue in Bellingham, but no Wilson Way.

So it just might be Grapeview, Washington. Ah, the wonders of Google earth(R)!

You know...Spoiler Below

on Pranks For Nothing when the picture was showing the outside of the hotel there was a sign by the road that said "I-5 Freeway"

Was it really? I honestly didn't notice that, and I've seen the episode twice. I hope that Sparky can catch that in her screen grabs, but that would totally make sense, being that I-5 runs through both Bellingham and Grapeview. Bellingham is really probably the better candidate, though, given its size, and when I zoomed out, I realized that it does have a rather nice little beach(probably complete with jellyfish), and fits the bill perfectly. It also has Western Washington University, which could very well be where Frankie earned her degree in whatever it is she has that degree in. We can forgive them not having a "Wilson Way", since Wilson Avenue is close enough!

By the way, you don't have to put spoiler tags, Mac-a-Lacka, unless it's for an episode that most folks haven't seen yet.

Hope I'm not breaking any rules by double posting but I wanted to point this out...I-5 doe's not go through Grapeview.

[Sparky]

I dunno, I don't think we're supposed to think the show takes place in a real town. I believe it's a fictional one, so the I-5 could go through/past it. It could be *near* this Grapeview, but I don't think the show is supposed to take place in any real town.

But you got to get an idea from somewhere...

If it does I can tell you where we'll be having Forumcon eventually.

There was a new clue in "Pranks for nothing!" Theres a sign outside of the hotel that says Highway 15. Mr. Herriman said that the hotel was several hours away from fosters (can't remember exact number).



Washington and Oregon could both work. This also means the episode "Pranks for Nothing" took place in either Montana, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, or California
