1. On vacation to Yellowstone National Park last Fall, I discovered that Idaho was about 20 miles from where we were staying. Since Idaho was the only state I never visited, I made a side trip to complete my goal of visiting/being in all 50 States.

    Has anyone here been able to visit all 50 states?

    Thanks...........
  2. In my earlier days as a trucker, I only made it to the lower 48. Still have Alaska and Hawaii on my map to go.
  3. I’ve managed 28. Still working on it.

  6. My work has taken me to a fair number of places in the country. So I counted them up but did not count the ones where I never left the airport or when I was with my parents as a little kid. It seems I’ve been to 31 states. Interestingly the only state on the eastern seaboard that I have not been to is North Carolina. I think I’m going to have to plan a family road trip so I can tick off the lower 48. I’ve always wanted to see Alaska and I’m sure Hawaii is gorgeous. I guess I have some planning to do. That’s quite an accomplishment going to all 50. Congrats.
  7. 23 for me

  12. I’ve also been to Canada & Mexico.
  13. I think I’ve been to 44 or 45 states plus Samoa and Guam.
  14. I've been to 24 states that I can remember.

    Elsewhere, I spent two years in Germany when I was in the army. Made it to Austria, Italy, and Corfu while I was over there.

    More recently Honduras and Malawi, several times each. Several more if I get any say in it.

  18. My Mom has the distinction of having traveled to every continent (yes, even Antarctica.) I like to tease her that she's been every place except the moon. My theory on that is that she didn't like the restaurants there. Great food, but no atmosphere.

  19. The moon is a harsh mistress. ;) Thanks to R.A.H. I'd sign up for a visit and would apply for citizenship.

    Easier to list the CONUS I haven't lived in or visited. Haven't done the extreme North East or North West states, but I've driven through or lived in most every other. Growing up in Chicago a family vacation brought us into Canada, while another trip to Yosemite made the loop into Cali and a day trip to Juarez, Mexico long before it became a kidnapping and murder center for tourists. A flight out of Miami passed over Cuban airspace on the way to Costa Rica during a Missions trip. I need to renew my passport for an anticipated visit to Australia to see my oldest son and his GF.
