Places your FB has been.....

Well I was bored today and started thinking about the road trips I've done in my FB and was actually suprised at the number of states I've hit. Figured I'd see what everyone else has.

So lets hear it, total number, states/provinces and any other countries!

I'll go first:

10 total

CA,CO,NV,KS,MO,IL,KY,TN, and AL

had the chance to bring it out here to Spain, but passed it up for some stupid reason I can't recall and have been kicking myself every day out here.

Not long after I'd bought it here in CA, I went on a long roadtrip with my SA:
Eastward on I-10:
California
Arizona
New Mexico
Texas
Louisiana
Northward from New Orleans:
Mississippi
Tennessee
Missouri
Iowa
Nebraska
Westward from Omaha:
Colorado
Utah
Nevada
Back into Cali & Los Angeles... Did it in a week, with a two-day layover at my folks' place in Omaha.

So, that's 13. My SA's been back and forth to Vegas a dozen or more times since then, but hasn't touched on any other states in the 20 years I've owned it.

It'd be a minimum 700+ mile drive one way before it could touch a new state.

OR, CA, VA, NC, SC, GA, TN with me driving (hope to add a lot more)

It was also shipped from OR to VA when I moved, so it crossed a bunch of states there, but no one was actually driving it.

It has also been in Japan, of course.

You Easterners have an unfair advantage in this game; most of your states are smaller than some counties out this way!

First Japan, then on a big boat that probably landed in Vancouver B.C. Then put on a truck or train and transported across BC, AB, SK, MB, to get here to ON, where I reside.

I've taken it on road trips from here to Winnipeg, Manitoba through the U.S. The states would be MI, IN, IL, WI, MN, ND

From here to DGRR08 and 09. MI, OH, KY, TN, NC

Since it's been in my possesion, 11 states and 2 provinces.
