Well I recently just got back from a very spontaneous trip to Portland and then took a very nice train ride all the way to LA :D. The leaves were all in the process of changing which was BEAUTIFUL! Being from the desert it is a real treat to see seasons like fall.

Which means that I have one more state down, Oregon. Yeah now I am at 19/50. Hooray! I hope to hit up Washington next, but who knows where I may go :D

I have less than half left!!! I’m so excited! My car was broken into in Philly and my boyfriend and I were left with a rental car for nearly two weeks. So we visited (only newly visited states listed) Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware, and Maryland. That makes 28

My brother recently graduated from college in Ohio. My family flew out to attend and celebrate. I was pretty excited to be visiting a new state, of course that fell behind the excitement of my little bro achieving this landmark in his life :D. He needed to drive his new car and all his stuff back to Arizona and my family nominated me one morning while I was sleeping in to drive back with him. That was pretty shocking, but I was stoked!

New states added to my list are now: Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, and New Mexico.

Which makes the grand total as of right now 18/50 (I am counting Idaho and Montana, even though I previously stated they don’t count).

32 left to go :D

So hopefully I can get to the rest in the next two years!!

Over Labor Day weekend I drove from New Jersey to Colorado, spending a significant amount of time in a few states I’d never seen before – Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, and Nebraska. That’s four more down. I’ll definitely be spending a few weeks in Texas also, so that’s a total of five new states before the year is up. While I’m in Colorado, maybe I can zip up to Wyoming and check out Cheyenne… 14.5 states down, 35.5 remaining. My birthday is in a few weeks, so that means I’ll have four years left. Here’s hoping…

As of today I have been to only a handful of states. Nevada, California, Arizona, Utah, Hawaii, Missouri, North Dakota, Colorado, and Texas (also Idaho and Montana riding on a Greyhound but those don’t count). The crazy thing is that I have lived in 5 of those states. Haha. Maybe I should just move to each state ;)

I have visited – Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Vermont. I was in Virginia for business for a weekend, but I didn’t get to actually do anything other than work. So I’m at 10.5. I’m 25 and 1/2. 4 and a half years for 40 states? Is it even doable?

I have about ten more states to go
