How many states have you set foot in?

#1 Postby JetMaxx » Sun Aug 03, 2003 3:36 pm

I don't mean states you've flown over in an airliner....but instead the number of U.S. states you've set foot in (even if you just stopped to eat or fillup the gas tank)...

I haven't set foot in many -- only 11:

Georgia (where I was born & live)
Alabama
Mississippi
Florida
Tennessee
Virginia
North Carolina
South Carolina
Louisiana
Oregon
Washington
