We're ready to hit the road already

I love that we only have FOUR states left to see (Alaska is missing on this map because we cannot assign it an "I've been there color"-boo) and we're making off TWO of those in 12 days! We're more excited for this trip to Montana and Idaho than I thought possible. I almost want to contain our excitement so we're not somehow disappointed. We've not traveled since my birthday (over two months ago- we hate to go that long between trips!) and we're bursting at the seams ready to be in a new spot for a bit. 

The map's key goes as follows:
Pink- been there, but didn't see much
Orange- been there and saw some sights
Blue- spent a good amount in the state
Green- states where I've (Jenna) lived
White- must see before June 14, 2014

It makes my heart happy to think that my 50 by 30 goal is one that we will reach. I read a ton of travel blogs in preparing for our future world explorations and I'm always shocked at how many Americans travel the world before seeing all of the states first. I've certainly gone to foreign destinations along the way, but I've tried to never neglect the wonderful country that is my home. :)
