Re: Entering the Gates of States.....
Before my senior year in high school, my count of states visited was three: Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West By God Virginia
Since then, I've managed to wander around a fair bit; now it's easier to list the ones missing:
Hawaii, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, Arkansas, Kentucky, New Hampshire, Maine

You have to go to Hawaii. I absolutely loved it and can't wait to go back. Shoot, I might even look for a job there and buy a shack on the beach.Turk wrote:Before my senior year in high school, my count of states visited was three: Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West By God Virginia

You know what I remember most about Missouri? Going up the arch, meeting Max the trainer at the base, and then watching the Final Four. ('78). Know what I remember most about Kansas?
