This is gonna be a big year
So there are 3 national meets this year; Bradenton, Fla, Minneapolis, MN and Albuquerque, NM.
I have a goal to drive the 63 in all lower 48 states. So far, I've hit 26 of them.
Started planning the trips and by the time we get home from the Albuquerque show in October, we'll have hit them all.
Florida will give me NC, SC & GA.
After the Minneapolis show, we have a week booked in Napa, so instead of coming home and flying back, we're just gonna keep on going. That trip will give us WI, MN, ND, SD, MT, WY, ID, WA, OR, CA, NV & UT.
New Mexico will give us the rest we need; KY, AL, MI, LA, AR, OK, NM and AZ.
Maybe if we win the lottery, I can hit Alaska and Hawaii!

Re: This is gonna be a big year
Sounds like a super series of crusing trips. I hope you've saved up for fuel stops! Once crossing Texas from Beaumont to El Paso pulling a U-Haul, I had to carry 2 5 gallon gas cans in the trailer as insurance as they were very few gas stations east of El Paso until nearly the center of the state. That was an Olds 455 in a 72 Toronado but, yeah about the same gas mileage.

Got back from Bradenton, figured out the route for the cross country trip and just booked the hotel for Albuquerque.
Next stop; Napa California!
