4/22/2024 0 Comments Check off list of statesAnd I’ve got a list of Native American cultural sites that are maintained by certain tribes like the Cherokee complex in Tahlequah and the Chickasaw National Recreation Area in Sulphur. I’m spending more time in Oklahoma City since it has so much to offer, but I’m also planning trips to places farther from home like Broken Bow and the Wichita Mountains. But I’ve been making more of an effort to see and do things closer to home. Oklahoma: I’m born and raised in Oklahoma so I’ve done and seen a bit here, but like it often is wherever you’re from, you tend to spend your time just working and living and spend your travel time going to other places. I’ll keep this list updated, not just as I visit new states, but as I add more content to this blog for states that I’ve already visited (like I said before, I like to go back to places multiple times). In 2022, one of my big travel focuses is to drive the full Route 66 (all 2500 miles) from Chicago to LA which will bring visits to a few new states, but mostly visits to new areas of states I’ve already visited. It’s to actually spend time in each state (in multiple places especially if it’s a large state) and really get a feel for what that state is all about. I don’t have rules on what counts as a state visit, but my goal isn’t just to cross states off my list. Visiting all 50 states has always been a loose goal of mine, but when I started to plan out my travel schedule this year, I decided to really prioritize travel within the continental US and start picking away at travel to new states. I’ve always done more travel in the US than internationally, but I tend to be drawn back to the same places and there’s just soooo much to see in this country. If there’s one thing that COVID taught me, it’s that there’s a lot to see closer to home.
