One of my lifelong goals is to visit all 50 US states. I'm checking them off one by one and if the summer goes according to plan, I'll be at 32 out of 50! I still need to cover a big chunk of the middle of the country and about half of the northeast. I have a great roadtrip itinerary that takes care of the northeast and lots of ideas for some of the other remaining states. All I need now is some space in our calendar!
These are my "rules" π to check off a state:
π Driving or flying through does not count.
π Stopping for food or gas only does not count.
π You don't have to spend the night, but you do have to do something in the state that is special or unique to that particular state.
How many states do you have left? And what's your most unexpected favorite state so far? I didn't expect Idaho to be as beautiful as it was!
