Introduction


I'm Donna. I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I love to travel. My husband and I have taken a couple of very long road trips through the USA in the past few years and we're going to do it again this fall. We drive a 2003 Pontiac Montana minivan that has taken us to every state in the lower 48 states of the US except California, Arizona, New Mexico, West Virginia, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island! This fall we'll be adding WV and all the New England states to the Montana's list of accomplishments.

As for Dan and myself, we have visited every state except Alaska, WV, RI, CT, MA, VT, NH and ME. At the end of this road trip we'll have only Alaska left to visit and we'll have been to every state that there's a star on the flag for. In August 2012, we plan to cruise to Alaska and that will accomplish our goal of visiting every state. We've also visited 5 Central and South American countries and much of Canada. Dan has seen a lot more of our country than I have due to his line of work. I think he hasn't visited Newfoundland or New Brunswick. Myself, I still need to visit all of the provinces east of Quebec and the three territories in the north. This fall, we plan to visit Halifax though, so I'll get to add a new province to my list! We may also visit New Brunswick but that's not been decided for sure yet.
