Confused and Dazed
Yes, I am 100% red-blooded American, and I have the t-shirt from Walmart to prove it. But nobody knows from which state I hail, because I'm mysterious like that. But it is the greatest state in the union.
Anyway, I've been to every state except California and Hawaii. Granted, many of them were passing through on road trips, some of which I was too young to remember well (most of the South from Louisiana to South Carolina, except Florida which I returned to later). But yeah, I've physically been in all of them, and remember something about most of them. Also, apropos of nothing, I really like the idea of riding a train cross-country, just seeing everything in the countryside as it whooshes by. Of course, the only large system (that I know of) is Amtrac, which skips over many states completely and only covers a limited portion of the west. Maybe one day.
