This American Life
I've often said that at some point, I'd really like to visit all fifty states. Ideally, I would see at least one point of interest in each one; in other words, sitting in the Minneapolis airport for a couple of hours doesn't count. Since the beginning of the year is always a fun time to get organizational stuff done, here's the list as it stands. Crossed out states are well and visited. Parenthetical states can technically be checked off the list, but it would be better to go back and see more (witness the short drive and corn purchase in North Carolina). The rest I have never set foot in, unless it was one of those disqualified layovers or something similar.
Alaska
Arizona
(Arkansas)
Colorado
Connecticut
(Delaware)
Idaho
Maine
Massachusetts
Minnesota
Mississippi
Montana
New Hampshire
New Mexico
(North Carolina)
North Dakota
Oklahoma
Oregon
Rhode Island
South Carolina
South Dakota
Utah
Vermont
Washington
(West Virginia)
Wyoming
And for good measure...
Now, let's get to work on crossing more off the list. Road trip, anyone?

I'm game for a road trip!
God, I really need to do a better job of banking my vacation days, so I can do a 2- or 3-week cross-country road trip. Driving from New Mexico to New York was one of the best times I've ever had.
