I have done a lot of traveling these last six months. I have driven through the following states:  Utah Wyoming  Nebraska  Iowa  Illinois  Indiana  Ohio  Pennsylvania  New York  Massachusetts  Rhode Island   Connecticut  New Jersey  Maryland  West Virginia  Virginia  North Carolina  South Carolina  Georgia  Alabama  Florida  Mississippi  Louisiana  Texas  New Mexico  Arizona  That is about half of all the states! Some people never leave their state. Seeing most of my country is so cool. There are so many different landscapes; deserts, forests, beaches, and bayous. There are so many beautiful things that I noticed. Bluebonnet flowers growing everywhere in Texas. The tall trees and windy roads in Pennsylvania. The big sky and pronghorn antelope in Wyoming. The Saguaro cactus in Arizona. The mountains in Utah. Wow! I am so blessed to live in such a great country.  Save Save

I hated Jack and felt bad for Piggy. + The pace was good. - It was sad. Overall rating ***** (5/5 stars) I personally think that everyone sh
