only 12 more states to go!!!!!
Lest you think I had given up on my challenge to stay over night in all 50 states, I have not!
As you’ll recall, my rule is I cannot just drive through the state, I must stay over night.
As I write this from 30,000 feet, I am returning from Oregon (Portland and Eugene)!!!
So here’s the updated count of the states I have officially visited in my life:
1. Arizona
2. Arkansas
3. California
4. Colorado
5. Connecticut
6. Florida
7. Georgia
8. Illinois
9. Indiana
10. Iowa
11. Kansas
12. Kentucky
13. Louisiana
14. Maine
15. Massachusetts
16. Maryland
17. Michigan
18. Minnesota
19. Missouri
20. Nebraska
21. Nevada
22. New Jersey
23. New York
24. North Carolina
25. North Dakota
26. Ohio
27. Oregon!!!!!!
28. Pennsylvania
29. South Carolina
30. South Dakota
31. Tennessee
32. Texas
33. Utah
34. Vermont
35. Virginia
36. Washington
37. West Virginia
38. Wisconsin
Thus, I am left with only these 12 American states still to visit (don’t they say the last dozen are the hardest?):
39. Alabama
40. Alaska
41. Delaware
42. Hawaii
43. Idaho
44. Mississippi
45. Montana
46. New Hampshire
47. New Mexico
48. Oklahoma
49. Rhode Island
50. Wyoming
If you’re going to travel, you might as well make it fun!
[…] to Oregon for the first time was a pretty great way to kickoff February as I am now down to only 12 states I have not stayed overnight […]
