The 31st state we visited on our road trip was North Carolina from mid-February to early March. Normally we'd have spent 5 weeks or so in a state the size of NC, but with us speeding things up on the road trip (see here for more about that), we reduced our time there to 3.5 … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From North Carolina

Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Delaware
The 30th state we visited on our road trip was Delaware in November 2022. Seeing as it's a smaller state - you can drive from north to south in less than two hours when there's no traffic - we didn't stay there as long as we do with larger states. As a result, we only spent 11 … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Delaware
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Pennsylvania
Shae, Truffles and I spent just over a month in Pennsylvania from early October to early November. We'd briefly visited Pennsylvania before, but never spent much time there nor explored any of the state, so we weren't too sure what to expect. We ended up liking the state a … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Pennsylvania
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Iowa
Shae, Truffles and I spent a month in Iowa in recent months. We spent a couple of weeks there in late June/early July, then returned for another couple of weeks later in July having headed back to Nebraska in between to visit Omaha for a week I enjoyed Iowa far more than I … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Iowa
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Nebraska
Shae, Truffles and I spent a month in Nebraska in recent months. We spent a few weeks there in June, then returned for another week in July to visit Omaha because the week we'd originally planned to visit was when NCAA baseball was in town and so hotels were either fully booked … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Nebraska
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Utah
Shae, Truffles and I spent a month in Utah earlier this year. A couple of weeks were spent there in April when my parents visited from the UK, then we headed back there for a couple of weeks to check out Salt Lake City. I'd only heard good things about Utah from people who'd … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Utah
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From California
Shae, Truffles and I spent mid-December 2021 to mid-March 2022 in California, doing a loop around the state. It was interesting being back in the state as we'd lived there for four months more than a decade ago. I'd liked SoCal's weather and general vibe and so thought I'd … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From California
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Oregon
Shae, Truffles and I spent mid-October to mid-December in Oregon, having postponed that from our original plans to spend the summer there. We didn't pick the greatest time of year to visit weather-wise which meant we were less inclined to spend a lot of time outdoors, plus … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Oregon
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Colorado
Shae, Truffles and I spent all of June and July and a little bit of August and September 2021 (with an international trip in between) in Colorado while on our 50 state road trip. This was our third time visiting Colorado on our road trip though. We stayed a few weeks in Denver … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Colorado
Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Arizona
Shae and I spent most of April and May of 2021 in Arizona having also spent a couple of weeks there in 2020 just before - and just as - COVID started impacting the US. It's a beautiful state with lots of great hiking, delicious food and other stuff to do, although the heat can … [Read more...] about Here’s Our Best & Worst Things From Arizona
