Not very impressive

My map isn't very impressive. In reality I am much more of a high point type of person. I love to climb and get to the top of things and enjoy the view. On the other hand I love the beach except for all the sand and water. I'm not sure if I can count Idaho. I have been to the Snake River but I'm not sure where in Idaho the exact point is.

More impressive is the states I have visited. Most of these states I have spent time in and gotten out and pounded the ground a bit. A couple I have only driven through and one (NJ) I sat in an airport. I will be adding Ohio in a couple of weeks and that will bring me down to 15 states left. Most of those states are in the NE which could be knocked out in a weekend visit! Alaska and Hawaii will be the tough ones to get.
