Visited States

Here's where I've been:

Wow, almost all of them! I hit the majority of them in three trips: a

family train trip to Montana when we were kids (My parents are that

0.0002% of the population who enjoy train travel. I, however, do

not.), a post-college road trip from Boston to New Orleans, which was

my first big adventure south of Mason-Dixon, and my drive from Boston

to San Diego last January. And yes, I insisted on a detour to Four

Corners, because when I was a kid memorizing state capitals I thought

it was SO COOL that you could be simultaneously be in four states at

once, when in fact it is probably the most bleak, isolated, and boring

national monument in the country (although I did lie down in the

middle of four states and that was pretty cool).
