So I am going to detour into that skinny blue state on the east and spend some time in Nashville! Once I have a better idea of my departure date, I am going to attempt to book a ticket for the Grand Ole Opry. What a dream come true!<\/p>\n<p>I think from there I will go through Alabama (tall skinny yellow), Mississipi (tall skinny red), and Louisiana (purple). Once I park in Texas (green), I can take my truck to visit Arkansas (middle yellow) and Oklahoma (red that looks like a pot). I can then head back to Canada through New Mexico (yellow square) and Utah (blue square).<\/p>\n<p>I am glad that insurance matters are resolved and that there is no burning need now for me to go to Ohio and sue anyone! So I have no idea when I will make it there.<\/p>\n<p>As for Hawaii, it&#8217;s like Nunavut (except that they are opposites). I&#8217;m not sure I want to get on a plane just to say I&#8217;ve been somewhere that otherwise doesn&#8217;t hold much interest.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know yet when I&#8217;m pulling out, probably the week between Christmas and New Years.
