I'm sure I'm leaving some of them out.
I've spent time (overnight, days, weeks,...) in most cities in the US that would be considered major, but I've never been to Houston, Seattle, or San Antonio and have only driven through Chicago a few times without staying. The two that I want to visit most are Seattle and Chicago.
I've been to New York, Washington, Seattle, Miami, San Francisco and Orlando. I'd like to see Boston, New Orleans, Portland and Chicago. I'd also like to return to New York and explore it properly because I haven't been since I was a child.
Been to:
New York
Los Angeles
Chicago
Houston
Dallas
Miami
Boston
Washington DC
San Francisco
Portland
Denver
Austin
San Antonio
Buffalo/Niagara Falls
Detroit
Milwaukee
Saint Louis

Memphis
Tulsa
Tucson
Jacksonville
Tampa
Orlando
Philadelphia
Phoenix

Seattle
Las Vegas
Cleveland
Cincinnati
Kansas City
Salt Lake City
Honolulu

I've driven through Atlanta and stopped before but didn't get the vibe of the city. Back in 1999 I went to Atlanta to visit cousins and all I remember is the drive from the airport and back to the airport and lots of trees on the way, unfortunately it ended up being a family trip where all we did was stay at "home" at my cousins place instead of doing anything exciting so I cant count it.
For the cities I still want to see, check the second list. My goal is to see all 50 states and all major cities in the next 4 years.
Been to (and I will rank them by favorites!):
1. Chicago
2. San Francisco
3. Boston
4. San Diego
5. DC
6. NYC
7. Miami
8. Honolulu
9. Los Angeles
10. Las Vegas
11. St. Louis
12. Milwaukee
13. Cincy
14. Houston
15. Charlotte
16. Indianapolis
17. Orlando
18. Tampa
Want to go to (by order of my desirablity of going there):
1. New Orleans (might go in December)
2. Seattle
3. Philly
4. Pittsburgh
5. Portland, OR
6. Minneapolis
