That's right, folks, I'm a traveler! I found this online - probably linked from someone's blog (sorry I forgot who). I started checking away at the boxes, and then I realized I didn't remember some of them. While I was at my parents' house recently I asked them for help - we even consulted a handy road map for help. Turns out I've been in all but 4 states! So one of these days I'll have to head over to Alaska, North Dakota, Michigan, and South Carolina. I grew up in a military family - I think I've driven cross-country at least 6 times. I've lived in 8 states and visited many more. It was a great way to grow up.
Talking to my dad about this was fun - he's almost been in every state twice! He told me about the time when our family drove from Boston to Seattle the week before Christmas. Record low temps the whole week - we got stuck somewhere because our car wouldn't start (it was -42 F apparently!). Us kids (I was 7, and the oldest of 3 at the time) were in our winter coats in the car - we had other car problems (sounds like fun, eh?) - but we made it to Seattle (where it was only -11 F) in time for Christmas (and in time for Santa to bring me my Cabbage Patch Kid doll - a magical year!).
How many states (or countries, or provinces, or continents - like Meemo) have you been in?
