How many states have you been in?

[Your Star]

4. Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, and Alabama.

I really wanna travel more. At some point before I have too many adult responsibilities, I just wanna take a month, get in my car, and just go wherever it takes me.

 

[DiAnna]

Fourteen that I can quickly think of, but possibly more since I used to travel a lot to author conferences around the country.

 

[Trippy Trekker]

I'll upload a map. I count 23

digsbe, your map presented the data very effectively. We may have crossed paths. I have gone to 20 of the 23 you listed. My list does not include Washington, Nevada or Arkansas. My list, in addition to the previous 20, includes Oregon, Wisconsin, LA, Maine, NH, Vermont, Massachusetts, RI, CT, and Delaware.... for a total of 30.

I've hit 32/50. It's interesting how clustered the ones I haven't been to are.

 

[Fiddytree]

A real American would say "too many."

You, too, need to get to New Orleans ASAP.

I hit the three in the upper Northwest for the first time in 1999. I was 36. Very nice states, all three. You must go see them.

Since the other travel poll has gone swimmingly, lets see how many of these United States you have traveled to.


Personally, I've been to 42/50, missing AK,OR,ID, MT,SD,ME,NH,SC.

 

[foadi]

have worked in over 30, slept at least one night in over 40, and been to all 50

WA - Oregon's less attractive younger sister.
.

Younger yes. But to suggest WA is less attractive than OR is pretty lame.

 

[Top Cat]

Been to all but VT and LA.

 

[Top Cat]

Missing Hawaii, Alaska, Oregon, Washington, Louisiana, the Dakotas, NC Delaware and I believe Arkansas

Have competed in All of New England, MD, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, colorado, Texas, Utah, California, Kentucky, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Alabama, Pennsylvania, NY, NJ, Tennessee, Wyoming, Missouri. The others were driving to competition venues such as Nevada, NM, Nebraska, or business trips (Kansas DC, Va, etc)

I never made a real effort to accumulate states I have seen, it just worked out that way

Come to WA in the Summer. Glorious weather. Spectacular scenery. Seafood as good as it gets.

There's too much rain in both of them.

 

[Top Cat]

The San Juan Islands beg to differ.



17 inches a year of rain and 247 days of sunshine...

 

[Cephus]

The San Juan Islands beg to differ.

Oregon averages 154 days per year of rain.

NSSA world skeet championships were there in 88 IIRC but I was at a busy law firm and I had to choose between shooting in Seattle or going to the 88 Olympic trials in Ontario Ca a few weeks later and I decided to shoot the trials. My wife and son might be out there for a big field archery shoot in early June

[Gaugingcatenate]

Been to all except Hawaii, Alaska, Wyoming and South Dakota.

 

[Carjosse]

Only New York, Massachusetts, and Florida. I would really like to travel to travel to California and Texas.

Lame??? I've been across both states pretty thoroughly and I can state that Oregon is a substantially prettier state. Washington has a couple of spots (Olympic Peninsula), the Gorge around Bonneville, that Oregon doesn't have, but overall, Oregon is much prettier, especially when you get on the east side of the Cascades. Steens Mtn, Cent. Cascades, Smith Rock, the entire NE corner of the state (WA has nothing that can touch Wallowa Lake), the High Lakes of Cent. OR, the Alvord Desert, Fort Rock, Klamath Lake.

 

[EvMetro]

I was a long haul trucker in the 1990's, so I saw everything but Hawaii and Alaska. I drove team with the wife that I was with at the time, and we saw all of these states, plus Canada, many times over. After awhile, I started counting off how many states we had made out in. All but Alaska and Hawaii.

There are so many places you failed to mention in WA. The list is staggering.

Clearly you don't know WA

Just show me one place in WA that is as beautiful as Wallowa Lake.
