Been everywhere except Alaska. Trying to get that one in during 2012.

Been to every country in Europe west of Romania. Now trying for continents, with Africa booked for next April.

This makes no sense. Why would you want to visit 49 states and stop there, having never seen a large state in the middle of the country?

I've been to 43 states. The seven that elude me that I hope to definitely visit:

Delaware
Connecticut
Rhode Island
Massachusetts
Maine
Alaska
Hawaii

Luckily for me, I could bust out the five small East Coast states in rapid succession one weekend. I'd prefer to spend more time exploring them though.

Personal reasons for the Nebraska thing, sorry, just have an extreme distaste for Nebraska.

In order, there are twenty of them. I'll try and include my best guess at the year I first set foot in them:
California (born and raised), 1983
Oregon, 1989
Washington (semi-raised, lived in), 1989
Idaho, 1992?
Montana, 1992?
Arizona, 1993?
Nevada, 1993?
Minnesota, 1993
Michigan, 1993
New York, 1993
Wyoming, 1994?
Utah, 1994?
Colorado, 1994? (live in)
South Dakota, 1996?
Nebraska, 1996?
Kansas, 1996?
Oklahoma, 1996?
Texas, 1996?
New Mexico, 1996?
Missouri, 2008

I'd like to visit all the rest of them. If I would make a guess at which one will be next, I'll guess North Dakota (it's like the closest one I haven't been to ldo).

I've also been to:

Canada

British Columbia, 1989
Alberta, 1995?
Ontario, 2002

Mexico
Baja California Norte, 2002

Nebraska isn't even close to being the worst state to visit. There's like hardly any (if any) corn in the panhandle.
