Our Goal:

OUR GOAL: Visit fifty states within the next two years. (edited: We missed our two year deadline but still hope to visit all 50 states)

The Rules: States we visit or where we have already visited as a family (three or more members) count. States visited by only one or two family members (such as a business trip) don't count.

Layovers and stopovers don't count. We have to actually either drive though a state or do some activity, outside of the airport, in that state.

An imaginary dialogue

Wow, Maria and the kids must really be doing a lot of traveling.  It has been months since she has updated the blog.  I can't wait to read about all of their adventures.  They must have logged in 20 more states since the last post.

Sorry to disappoint.  Not as an excuse but as an explanation for neglecting this blog, I offer the following:   I placed myself on a self imposed exile from blogging and fun time on the computer in general as in early December I was to teach a class and had not done one bit of writing on my lesson plan.  I had been pretty sick and had procrastinated to the point where I was freaking out.  I banned myself from all internet not directly related to the class.

The lesson pan was written and the class went off without a hitch... well,. not exactly true, several small hitches but it was done none-the-less.

Then, the hubbub of Christmas was upon us.  With shopping and decorating to be done, blogging was put on the back burner.

So,the only trips under our belt were the ones I have already referred to, my solos Disney trip, our trip to Colorado and the family trip to Disney.

I would use this weekend to write about those trips but Lil' Bit and I are on our way to Philadelphia first thing in the morning to help a friend move.

So bear with me as I get caught up.  The blog will be back on track sooner than you know it.
