Yeah, I cheated and included every state I've even had a brief flight change-over in (those being Colorado and DC). Hey, I've been there... ;)

I'm all traveled and stuff.

Damn, I'm jealous! My traveling never seems less impressive than when I do one of these maps. It's like "wow, I've done... umm... these teeny little chunks of the country. And that's it."

the western states are just so much bigger - in three hours you can drive from Albany, NY to Maine - that's 4 states. At best, from Seattle, you'll get to Portland. :\

True, true. They really are tiny over there!

I did this a couple months ago.

Whoa, were you in the military (or child of military)
or have you traveled SO very much?

I'm a gypsy.
As a kid both of my parents had their own businesses so we could all have two months of summer together to drive up to Seattle from Arkansas. That covered a lot of the western states.

The eastern states came from moving to NY and being a full-time paid grad student, letting me drive damn well anywhere I felt, covering New England.

In high school my marching band played the Peach Bowl in Atlanta as well; as Bush Sr.'s inaugural parade.

I still travel a lot. I can't help it. I just sold my actual car, leaving me with a 16' RV (daily driver) and a 24' RV.

If the map were just for the past year it would cover WA, ID, MT, OR, UT, and CO. I'll travel to OR ID and MT before August, and probably CA, NV, and WY again before September. I really am a vagabond.

Holy crap, wow! I think you have as many gray states as I have red ones!!

Re: I did this a couple months ago.

[scearley.livejournal.com]

I've been to 38 states, 8 countries outside the US...and 25% of those countries don't exist anymore.

*Whistles* I still have yet to get outside the country at all, with the exception of Canada. *Sighs*

sitll no CA? if you ever want to come, there's at least one place you can crash...

[rivendellrose.livejournal.com]

I may take you up on that someday - I feel very silly having never been to one of the closest states! Plus, I hear parts of CA are very cool.

Not bad.

Not bad at all. Yours is almost the exact opposite of mine!

I only added a couple of airport stops in there.

Adding airport stops and states I've only driven through practically doubles my count, so it was important to me. ;)
