Get out the map…

Get out the map get out the map
and lay your finger anywhere down
We’ll leave the figuring to those we pass
on our way out of town
Don’t drink the water
there seems to be something ailing everyone
I’m gonna clear my head
I’m gonna drink that sun
I’m gonna love you good and strong
while our love is good and young

Indigo Girls~ Get out the Map

Cleary I need to get out more…

So, I really thought I was well traveled. I am the girl who took a bus from California to Ohio just for the experience of seeing more of the country.

But if you actually count states I have spent any time in and not just drove through, I am not that traveled at all.

And clearly I am a midwest west girl…


create your own personalized map of the USA
or write about it on the open travel guide

so… where do I need to go that I havent been and why?

Nothing wrong w/ being a Midwest girl :)

And as far as where to go - I say go to Boston. New England is super cool….

I bet you’d also have a lot of fun in Miami…

(And I totally count driving through states. Airport layovers, no.)

shoot! I have been to FL. I should have shaded it.

And driving doesnt count. you have to stop, and experience it. food, music, people, something!

I dated a guy from little rock. Also I had a “layover” there when I took a bus from CA to Ohio. (is it called layover when its a bus ride?)

But I so plan on visiting again. to see katiekins and her family and this hot bass player I know.

I think it’s definitely about time that you check out Big Sky Country or I check out the Midwest. We have been friends for like almost a third of my life here *huggles*
