I Get Around

This quasimeme was egregiously stolen from [info]bernmarx.... though I may or may not have gotten to play with this one before. Either way, I have more information about my youth.



create your own visited states map
or check out these Google Hacks.

It almost makes me feel downright podunk to be "stuck" here in Utah the last several years, after looking at this map. I guess I'm going to have to plan a trip sometime. Maybe I can take Pipes with me. She apparently hasn't traveled much of the country... she's "just" been to Russia. ;-)

A few of these states were cut-throughs. Many I actually stopped in long enough to sample some of the culture, the food, and the people. And I actually lived in a pretty good number of them, over the course of my life, with my father and myself both having served in the military. I wish I could diagram my path from one part of the US, to another, to another. And annotate three years in Japan, somewhere along the way.

nice travels. I find it odd that of all the states in the country you haven't visited FL yet. That one tends to be an easy one to pick off.

You're absolutely right.

And I would have visited FL years ago, if I hadn't been a brooding, angst-ridden teenager who preferred to stay home alone instead of accompanying my family to Disneyworld back then.

I have a friend I've known since I was twelve, who's currently living in Orlando. I may have a shot at knocking Florida off the map sometime in the next few years. It'd be a good chance to meet his darling wife and baby. (The kiddo's still in the oven)

I actually envy you your travels more... Egypt? I so wanna go there.

Pfft...

States... heh. It's all about countries, man... countries. :-)

Re: Pfft...

In that case, my list would be short: The USA, Japan, and Mexico. Not even Canada.

Oh... and Los Angeles. That's a whole separate country, unto itself. Kinda like Beirut, but with better music.

Good to seeya, Dave. =)

Wow, you've been all over the place! When you get the chance to visit Florida, I HIGHLY recommend the Sandestin Beach Resort http://www.sandestin.com

I absolutely fell in love with the Village of Baytowne Wharf...such a neat place. Destin is fabulous...a great and affordable vacation spot for the whole family.

How's the shark population? :D

I've been to beaches in Hawaii, California, Texas and Virginia/The Carolinas... I figure that Florida might complete the experience for me.

Also Japan... though beaches aren't quite the deal there that they are in the USA. And for the people they ARE a deal for... well, the women tend to dress more scantily. The mores are different there.

Mom about had an aneurysm when my brother and I were watching the Japanese equivalent to Sesame Street, and a beer commercial came on with a naked American woman running and bouncing across a beach.
