Expanding Horizons


Where do I want to go?
I have two states left to visit, Idaho and Wyoming,  So that I can check off all 50.
I want to spend more time in Caribbean. I have been to a handful if Islands and I think I could spend a couple of delightful years exploring more.
I want to go to Spain, Portugal, Ireland, and Scotland.
I want to go to Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and South Korea.

There are a lot of places to go back to and explore more of.  There are places I won't go and others I see no reason to visit.  There will be other places that I visit that are not on the list, I will seize the opportunity to take the adventure nearly anywhere.  My work takes me interesting places.  Only once have a I said "no" I don't want to go there to do that project.  I regretted that no.  It was a good project that yielded great benefits for several years that I would have been on the leading edge of, and the project coordinator took out on me her revenge for my saying no.  Probably cost me a trip to Guam, via Tokyo, with a weekend stop in Honolulu on the way home.

So where do you want to go next?

  1. Back to England, for sure, hopefully next spring. 6 or 7 or 8 states left to visit. I'd never say "no", I don't think, but my work never sends me anywhere except the other end of the county.

  2. They have lovely potatoes in Idaho, but most inhabitants are barking mad.

  3. Save its politics, Idaho is prettier than I would have ever imagined. And at least Boise is extremely bike-friendly - more so than most any other place I've ever been.

    I think you owe yourself a nice trip to Yellowstone & Grand Tetons NP's; so that would take care of WY. If you enjoy driving through gorgeous scenery in general, you could fly into Spokane, WA and drive through Idaho and Montana before dropping down from Livingston, MT to the northern entrance of Yellowstone. Coeur d'Alene, ID was lovely to look at, but I understand is also quite a stronghold of white supremacy, so we didn't stop. If you have never stayed at one, the lodges in the NP's are quite a treat. ~~~ NP
