States you've been to

[alfdogg 0]

I live in Indiana, been to Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, & Florida. That includes drive-throughs. So yeah, I'm not a very traveled person.

[Guest Vitamin X]

I'll be making my way out to California once my folks move out to Sacramento. I've heard it's a pretty nice area, so that could be cool.

They don't call Sacramento "Cowtown" for nothin, just so you know..

 

I'm not a big fan of the more inland cities in California like Sac-town and Bakersfield.

[treble 0]

New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine. I've at least spent the night in each of them, except New Hampshire, which was a drive thru on the way to Maine.

 

In Canada, Ontario, Quebec, BC, and Alberta. Same deal as the States, except for just spending a few hours in the Calgary airport last year on the way to and back from BC.

[Guest Regina Phelange]

Hmm...Maine, NewHampshire, Vermont, New York. Not bad for a Canadian, eh?

[Guest Agent of Oblivion]

Arizona- Interesting place, decent people. Like California but hotter and no water.

i hate that state. hate it. phoenix is the most boring city i've ever been to in my life. certain parts are cool, like around flagstaff, but most of it...ugh.

Well that's your problem, you're monkeying around godawful cities and civilization and that. Northern AZ, and the gorgeous desolate miles of desert make it one of my favorites. Mt. Sodona..that whole area is marvelous except for the tourist traps.

 

Arizona however does boast one of the three worst towns I've ever seen. Surprise. What a name. Boise City, OK and Amarillo, TX are the other two.

 

The Pacific Northwest is definitely my favorite though. Constant rain, great mountains, Portland and Seattle are both tolerable for large cities, which just aren't my cup of tea at all. I'm a proud rube and I get along well with hippie sorts. I enjoyed my time up there immensely. I visited Alaska during my childhood, as well as some of BC, but barely remember it. Just recently I've been toying with going back there, since it doesn't get any more Pacific or Northwest than that.

 

I loathe Texas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Kansas, and much of the plains. Texas in particular. The people were awful, the weather was worse, and everything was just fucking obnoxious. Horrible state. Georgia smells bad, WV is full of intolerable rednecks, PA is full of more weirdos than any state other than Utah, and New England struck me as unremarkable. I hated NYC and most of the East Coast. Everything's expensive and people are shitty. Comes from being crowded together.

 

California was nice to visit though I'd never live there. I've been down the coast. Didn't go in-state much.

 

My favorite states I've visited and remember well:

 

1. Washington

2. Colorado

3. Tennessee

4. Idaho-but only because it contains my favorite place in the nation, Craters of the Moon Natl. Monument.

5. Montana-Glacier in particular.

6. Oregon

7. Arizona

8. New Mexico

 

Tennessee's on there only because I've had an exceptionally good time every time I've went. There's nothing there in particular that wows me or anything like the western states.

 

Don't fence me in.

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

I went from Phoenix, Arizona, all the way to Tacoma, Philadelphia, Atlanta, L.A., Northern California, where the girls are warm so I could be with my sweet baby, yeah.

I considered doing that, but then i realized that it would suck.

 

By the way, anyone here been to Savannah, GA?

 

If so, did you fear for your life as well?

[Guest suplexmasta]

Savannah is perfectly fine as long as you don't get lost in the ghetto. You're thinking "Hey, it's Savannah, there's no ghetto!" Bull. If you find yourself there, run. Otherwise, perfectly fine.

 

And I live halfway between Athens (hottest college chicks around, if you ask me) and Atlanta (traffic sucks too bad to go there that often).

The bad: Baltimore is an ugly town; New Haven is even uglier. New Jersey may be the worst non-Southern state I've ever visited.

 

The good: Philly was pretty awesome. So was NYC (as long as you avoid Times Square). Providence, RI, too.

Hope to go to Japan, Thailand, and Holland at some point in my life as well.

[Guest Danny Dubya v 2.0]

Lived in : Illinois (born, 5 years), New York (current, 14 years)

 

Visited, not counting 'Drove through' :

Maine (campgrounds near Portland, we went to old orchard beach often on this double decker bus made in germany)

Virginia (campgrounds from which we stayed to travel to DC)

Pennsylvania (Hershey park and boring tour of some Amish town)

DC (went once with family, second time was on some school field trip)

Illinois (after moving to NY, we visited the people that bought our old house)

Ontario (In Toronto. The first time was for Marine Land and some awesome science museum that blew my mind 'cos I was very young then. The second time was for World Youth Day, which was the most miserable weekend of my whole life and the best for a billion other people. The only redeeming aspect of that was some local shop being completely flooded by sewage produced by the event.)

Indiana (another damn huge catholic youth event I regret being dragged to. Indianapolis was cool though.)

[phoenixrising 0]

California - Born and raised, and been all over the state. When I got my car within a month I took it up to Sacramento for a conference.

 

Nevada - I love Vegas. When I get a lot of money I will be there often.

 

Arizona - It was all right. My grandpa was from Jerome, which is a semi ghost town (people still live there but they haven't stuck any new buildings in or anything) and my family spent a day going through the town, we found his old high school and got an old photo of him so it was neat.

 

Colorado - saw Mesa Verde (the place where the Anazazi Indians built their cities into the sides of the mountains)

 

Utah - saw Zion and Bryce Canyon

 

New Mexico - Passed through one time, the next time stayed in Las Cruces. Nice little desert town. I considered going to school there (I was accepted by New Mexico State) but decided I didn't want to go too far from home.

 

Texas - The road from El Paso to San Antonio is the road to nowhere - you see NOTHING. You get NOTHING on the radio. We went down to Corpus Christi, saw the USS Lexington, Selena's salon and Selena's house (my parents were big Selena fans).

 

Mexico - Went into Ciudad Juarez while in El Paso. Dirtiest city I've ever seen. Couldn't wait to get out. And then we got stopped by Customs cause my parents decided to buy alcohol over there.

 

Idaho - Twin Falls - Walked on the Snake River Bridge, near the spot where Evel Knievel tried the jump. Scary - the wind was blowing hard and the bridge vibrates, so I felt like I was gonan go flying off any second. And it is a LONG way down.

 

Oregon - Saw Crater Lake, think that is the last time I have been camping. It rained all day with thunderstorms, needless to say I was miserable - I never liked camping before but that pretty much cinched it.

 

Washington - I want to move up there so badly. I loved Seattle. We stayed there for a few days, saw the Space Needle, Key Arena, saw a Mariners game at the Kingdome. I think it was that trip that made me a Mariners fan for good. My parents have been back and said the two new stadiums are awesome, someday I want to go up there and see for myself.

 

Canada - Visited Vancouver - probably the cleanest city I have ever seen. The air was clear, the city was nice. I pick Seattle over Vancouver but it's pretty close.

Truer words have never been spoken. My god that part of the trip is excruciating. Hate it, hate it, hate it.

 

Though it seems like from what Agent says, he'd like it. Seems to like desolate apocalyptic nothingness. Hell, anyone who can enjoy Arizona and New Mexico must.

Hm...... sounds nice and quiet. Too bad the sun's a bloodthirsty bitch that'll fly down and melt me alive ala the superangsty desert sun in SMB3. I haven't even gotten in any practice with a jumprope yet.

All of them except Alaska.

 

Oregon's my favorite, inronically I was born there, ironic because I don't remember being there the first time, only my second trip years later.

Incongruity between what might be expected and what actually occurs.

[Giuseppe Zangara 0]

Why would I expect you to remember the state where you were born? My only memories of my birthstate, Tennessee, comes from the time I visited a couple of years after moving to Florida.

[Nighthawk 0]

I didn't even tell you how long I lived there. I would expect myelf to remember it.

 

Also, break out the mountain oysters, ya hillbilly.

[Giuseppe Zangara 0]

Irrelevant. That you can't remember anything about your birthstate suggests nothing about human vanity nor folly, unless you want to concoct a story to prove otherwise.
