The Places I’d Like To Visit

By Marcella S. Meeks

I love to travel to new places, but I only get to travel two or three times a year at the most.
Mostly, lack of financial resources is the reason I don’t get to travel much. But I try and save as much as I can to at least take one long trip and a couple of short road trips every year. But that doesn’t leave me much room for browsing because with a limited travel budget, I can only go as far as the money will allow. Usually, that’s not much over a two or three hundred mile radius. And then it’s a short trip, no more than a weekend or so. I am thankful for the three times of year I get to go someplace.

Someone recently asked me what cities would I like to visit. Good question. There is no ‘one’ answer to that question. But how I see it is simple. I want to visit as many cities in as many states as I possibly can from the east to the west, north to the south. I want to travel to as many places as I can within the United States. I’m not too enthused about some cities and states but others intrigue me.

I have a huge bucket list already of the states I want to visit but I can only do one state at a time.

NEW MEXICO

COLORADO

GULF COAST OF TEXAS

FLORIDA

WEST TEXAS/BIG BEND AREA

ARIZONA

CALIFORNIA

NEVADA

WYOMING

MONTANNA

OREGON

WASHINGTON

NEBRASKA

ALL THE STATES ON THE EAST COAST

TENNESSEE

ARKANSAS

MISSOURI

These are the states I want to visit, city by city and be able to write about each place. I’ve been to New Mexico, Colorado, places in Texas and Arkansas, even Branson and parts of the Gulf Coast in Texas and Florida. But I only touched the surface of each place.

By New Year’s Resolution this year is to travel to as many cities as I can and be able to write about it and take pictures to share with everyone. This year I re-visiting places in Colorado and New Mexico and head west to Arizona – I want to take in several cities including Sedona, Flagstaff, Pheonix, Tucsan, Tombstone and several others before heading back home. I can only do one state at a time.
