Me neither. Outside of a couple of airports in California and Washington, Texas and Illinois are the only states I've seen west of the Mississippi River.

Same here. I've been from FL to PA and everywhere in between as well as TN, MS, and AL, but LA (Louisianan not Los Angeles) is the furthest west I've been. I am dying to get out there one day, it looks like beautiful country.

I've got roots in Rhode Island and Washington but they are on a side of the family we rarely converse with, much less visit.

Haha, actually I screwed up my geography there, Illinois is east of the Mississippi River. I just get confused because it has a major tributary we crossed over when heading there from Indiana.

Anyway, I've been to just about every state east of it, excepting Wisconsin and Michigan outside of an airport layover in Detroit for an hour. And I've been to Hawaii. I'd like to see them all some day.

And I've got distant cousins out in Kansas, but I don't really know them. My mother does, but they're a lot older, so I don't think of them much.

I would consider Hawaii to be a western state, even west of the Mississippi river. :wink:

Eh, I guess. I don't really associate it and Alaska with the lower 48 though.

I certainly can't argue with that.

peter engel is a weird schmuck. Pretty sure I'm not the first one to voice that opinion. But seriously, screw that guy.

Smile: Nice view of Chicago

Think I won't play Second City?
