After spending 5 years (and many thousands of dollars, but that's another story) overseas and seeing a bit of Europe, and meeting many people, especially Irish people, who've seen more of the States than I have, I've decided to add to my unofficial list of Things to Do Before I Die: See Every State In the United States. A lofty goal, I admit, but I have years to do it, and I take inspiration from my 5th grade teacher (remember Mr. Rice, Katie? How could you forget him) who had seen every United State! Very impressive and quite a thing to tell my grandchildren, should I have any.
We'll start with the easily-accessible ones: the Southeast, and go from there. And I'm not talking about just driving through, I'm talking about planning a trip, seeing the state, learning about it, etc.
Here are the states I feel that I've already covered in good detail:
Alabama (obviously)
Georgia
Umm, well that's about it, and I could probably see more of Georgia but let's face it, I only have one lifetime. Besides, I'm about to see more of Georgia in my driving to various job interviews, so I feel OK about that one.
What do you think? Crazy?
Wanna join me?
