sundog Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 I've been to all the US States, except Hawaii' and Alaska. I've been to all Canadian provinces, except Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador. I have NOT been to the 3 Canadian territories. But, all of this has been trucking, and I don't think it counts for shit, and in fact, a lot of it has been a real bummer. I've seen the signs to turn off for Crater Lake, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, and a lot of other National Parks, but, obviously, I couldn't go see them. I've been to some National Parks in Canada, but only because I was delivering there. It's the same with cities. I know how to get around in most of the cities in Canada and the US, but I've never been downtown and really visited them. Recently, Jeopardy showed a picture of Montreal, a city I've been to multiple times. But, I didn't recognise it, because it was downtown. A lot of those images that Rush is showing on the pre concert film I don't recognize, because of the same reason. I would argue that if you've been to a National Park or to some state parks in a given state or province, then you've seen more that I have, even though I've driven on over 95% of the Interstate miles in the US. That is why I didn't include the states that I have only briefly stopped in or drove through. I don't think it gives them a fair shake. North America is so beautiful - and each area has some amazing things to see, from the desert, to the beaches to the mountains (and even the differences in the mountain ranges) ~ I think vacationing here is wonderful.Yeah, but y'all have Nova Scotia and British Columbia, which I think are tops.Nova Scotia IS amazing. I love the East coast. PEI and New Brunswick are also beautiful. I haven't been to BC, :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troutman Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Not bad, indeed. :) The caveats you included remind me of my son, as he does the opposite- meaning that if we've been in an airplane even just flying over a particular state, he counts it that he's been there. :P I'd make my own map, here, but I don't know if I'd be able to get the image to post. (I'm rather an idiot, when it comes to things like that). But I could make a list...Copy the HTML code at the bottom of the map, then in the posting tool bar here - click the 3rd icon in on the top row. It gives you options for code types, choose HTMLPreview your postRemove the part of the code that looks like this [ html] at the start and the part that looks like this [ /html] at the end and then preview again and your map should show when you post. Does it have to be through facebook? I chose the states but can't figure out how to post it. :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narps Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 The only time I have been outside the U.S once in my life and as a young lad. We went to the Worlds Fair in Canada in 1967 and spent alot of time there and the upper east coast of Canada and the states. It was about a one month trip all in all...

The Europe map shows Northern Ireland which is part of the UK but Ive never been there. I've been to the airport in Phoenix, Denver and Salt Lake City, but I didn't quantify it as a visit, so I left them blank on my map. I've driven through all of the NE states, and didn't count those either. I used the guideline of having spent at least 24-48 hours visiting, not just driving through.
