2. I vactationed everywhere in Maine and I've visited Boothbay Harbor a few times - my wife has family there.
3. Lived in CO for almpst 4 years and I went camping and hicking in all those counties.

Anyone here for Essex, NY or Addison, VT?  I think Addison, VT is much less likely given the lack of VT and upstate NY posters and small size

I've driven through Addison, VT.

And I've been to Bradford, PA.

Sullivan County, PA is the only one I could think of. World's End State Park is literally the only reason someone not from the area would go there as there's no highway passing through or any shortcuts.

I looked on a map, and you might if you were taking highway 220 from Central PA to Sayre or Elmira, NY. Or any of the major cities in upstate NY.

US-220 to Sayre is the only reason I'd drive the road from Central PA. Syracuse is better reached using I-80 to I-81 and Rochester is better reached by I-80 to I-180 to US-15 to I-86 to I-390. Binghamton is similarly better reached using I-80 to I-81. Elmira is also quicker reached using the I-180 to US-15 route.

Not sure what counties CultureKing has been to, but here are some possibilities for me:

Powell, MT
Lewis and Clark, MT
Flathead, MT
Lake, MT
Cascade, MT
Meagher, MT
Nez Perce, ID
Latah, ID
Yakima, WA
Chelan, WA
Whitman, WA
Klickitat, WA

I know I went on vacation with my family once to somewhere in NE Oregon (from Spokane) but I don't really remember where. It is also possible I went to the Tri-Cities when I was young. I could be missing the Northeastern-most counties in WA and maybe a couple in Montana, as well.

I'm throwing Essex, NY out there again and possibly Warren, NY

I drove through Essex and Warren (and Clinton) when I went to Montreal a few years ago. Its a very remote area by regional standards. Its the only time in my life I ever used cruise control on my car.

Anybody been to:

Herkimer County, NY
Androscoggin, Maine
Ocean, NJ
Sussex, DE
Wicomio and Worcester, MD
Accomack and Northampton, VA
New Hanover, NC
Beaufort, SC
Monroe, FL

As you can see, I rarely leave the East Coast. I've only been west of the Appalachians 3 times.

I liked that 7 mile bridge at Marathon Key. Its a shame it was so cold when I went (like 50 Degrees, which is practically unheard of down there)

Possibly--I've been to several counties that border it, though I'm not sure which route I took.


Spent about a month there.

Has anyone been to Avery, NC?

I've picked up Schuyler. Allegany, Chenango, Ulster and most of southern NY by travelling along I-86, the Finger Lakes, and Catskills.

I've been to counties in and around Clayton IA, traveling along both sides of the upper Mississippi.

Yes to the above. I've vacationed in Rehoboth Beach, DE and Hilton Head, SC.

I've still not heard any responses to Stark or Randolph, IL.

In Georgia, I'll list Baldwin, Ben Hill, Burke, Colquitt, Dougherty, Glascock, Hancock, Irwin, Jefferson, Johnson, Putnam, Telfair, Worth (and possibly Screven save for those old enough to have traveled before I-95).

Baldwin- I've been to Millidgeville several times.
Dougherty- I went to Albany once when I was young, I think.
Johnson- I've got an uncle in Wrightsville.
Putnam- I travel through whenever I go to my grandparents.
Telfair- I've got cousins in McRae. In addition, we pass through Telfair on the route my family usually takes to the beach.

I've passed through once, taking US 378 to Colombia.

Ive been to all of the counties in Florida.  There has to be one that nobody's been to, maybe Alachua?

I actually just got home from a trip to Gainesville.

I don't know where all in the state Clay and Dibble have travelled, but I'll guess Gilmer, Murray, Oconee, Oglethorpe, Walton and Wheeler.

Only ones I can think of that relatively few other forumites have been to; mostly these are 'go-through-on-car-trips' counties:

DeSoto, FL (although I bet StatesRights has been there)
Hardee, FL (probably there too)
Putnam, FL
Allegheny, MD (although one or more of the Maryland forumites probably came; I've been to Cumberland)
Hampton, SC (on an I-95 traffic detour)
Orange, VA
Possbily Pittsylvania or Page, VA  (although anyone using US-29 south of Lynchburg would hit Pittsylvania and Luray Caverns is in Page).
Custer, SD (some people who've been to Mt. Rushmore have been there, but the border is just south of Mt. Rushmore itself and most people come there from the north. If you've been to Wind Cave, the town of Custer, or a couple of other attractions though, you've been there).

You got Gilmer and Walton right for me.  Smiley

The counties I've been to that no one else has....Fannin, maybe?

Or even my current home, Dawson County.

I've driven through Dawson on GA 53, driving up to Elijay.

I think I've never been to Fannin. Not sure.

Have you ever been to Barrow County, Clay? I've always been curious as to what my hometown is like from the perspective of an outsider.
