I don't know what it says about me.
create your own visited states map
or write about it on the open travel guide
I really like the Midwest, too (at least the states I have visited in the region). Someday I will make it to these other states. Since my favorite way to travel is by train, I will have to figure out the right plan (and then figure out when we can take such a block of time out to do it). Otherwise I like to drive (backroads as much as possible). The problem is that I don't know a lot of people in these states, so I would have to take longer, because when you wing it you inevitably make mistakes and stay in the boring part of town and then you find out where the interesting stuff is, and then you need to stay an extra day and you hope that the people you are planning on seeing the next town down will not mind you being a day later, etc.
Don,
Watch out or I might show up on your doorstep some day! There was something that I wanted to see in Wichita, but I can't remember what it was. My cousin lived there for a year or two, and I never did get around to visiting.
