There should be a mandatory week of travel for all quilters to visit other quilters on this board. That way we would all be traveling at least once a year, or more often, if you would like. Good way to see other parts of the country and visit old and new friends.

Am a Canadian but travelled to 46 States as a tourist --missed 4 unforunately.
Also did 10 of the Canadian provinces. Tried to see anything that said tourist trap.
Sorry that I didn't get to Mount Rushmore and Hawaii.

Since my DH and I have been playing on our motorcycles (we like to think we're practicing for retirement!), we have been to all 10 provinces, still have to do the 'territories'. Have had the very good fortune to have been in Cape Spear, Newfoundland - most easterly point in Canada; all the way to Tofino, BC - most westerly.
Have been to most of the US states - this summer we're planning on adding Washington and Oregon.
We travel the roads less travelled, enjoying every mile/km along the way :)

I may not have visited, but I've at least flown over most of the provinces of Canada. I've visited PEI, New Brunswick, Quebec, live in Ontario, Manitoba and BC. Flown over Saskatchewan, Alberta and Newfoundland/Labrador.
Now I just have to head north to Yukon, Northwest Territories and our newest territory -Nunavut!
I've been to several states of the USA, and to Europe.
