Jennifer, you make me laugh all the time!Jennifer W said:Many of them. I can't contemplate the specifics, because I'm still mentally scarred by the road trip. Yup, it was a road trip. My family flew to NYC, hooked up with relatives, crammed what felt like 39 people and their luggage into a car with broken aircon and toured the US over many, many weeks in a heatwave that made headline news.
I think we covered maybe 8 or 9 states? I was around 12 at the time.

I've been to more states than I realized -- but DH out-travels me in the U.S., while I've seen more of Europe than he has & he grew up there.

I would give my right arm to go to Hawaii. To me, living in Scotland, it sounds like the most exotic place on earth.
No, I don't think we can get these shows here. Probably not a bad thing, because otherwise I would be pestering DH to relocate. I have a bad habit of going somewhere on vacation and immediately wanting to move there. At the moment, we're looking at property on the Outer Hebrides. Hawaii would at least be warm, though.missy|1416518069|3787499 said:Jennifer W|1416515380|3787452 said:Rena7|1416514650|3787441 said:Washington, Oregon, Arizona, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Florida, Illinois, Texas.

Oh me too. Do you ever watch that show Hawaii Life? It is about house hunting in Hawaii and you get to see all different places there at all the different islands. Very enjoyable. There was also another hawaii show on HGTV but I cannot remember the name of it right now that showed a more rough and tough hawaii living. It was very cool and made me rethink my wanting to move there lol.
