Our goal is to visit all the US states (or at least the lower 48) and as many National Parks as we can before time runs out. We have no idea when our time will run out for even the Bible tells us we don't know what tomorrow brings (The Book of James, Chapter 4). So to be on the safe side, we will say "Lord willing, we will eventually visit all of the US states". We started our adventures together in 2006 and as of 2024, this is our current tally:

43 US States   -   26 National Parks

The US states we have been to are Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

* We only went to the port to Dry Tortugas and not actually out to the fort. At $150-$175 per person to ride the ferry out there, we felt it was simply not worth it. Maybe one day when we win the lottery, we will acatually visit the fort.

In the future, we will pick up the remaining states of Oregon, Washington, North Dakota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Alaska and Hawaii as well as the following National Parks:

  1. Death Valley National Park

We will also travel through quite a few other states in our travels, but we don't mention the ones we have already been to.
