US states avatars

[wheel interested]

Then Clancy Boy, I cheated because I did count our SOB camping. But I am keeping a journal just for our Airstream travels. I am glad to hear you have been in 44 states. I had almost posted and asked you if you had never been out of Missisippi, and then rethought the unlikelihood of that!

What fun! Thanks for the link

Here's all the states I've been to, but for my avatar I only used the states we've slept in the trailer in. Too bad when I went to OK our friend insisted we stay in her guest room!

I guess we need to take a trip this summer and get more of those states filled in!

Although it's true, there are some people in Mississippi that have never left the state, I am not one of them. I cannot find a good reason to leave the state and am most happy when I am home. My job has taken me to more places than I like, some good - some bad, none are like home. Right now I am in the Persian Gulf Region and think everyday "what the He%$ am I doing here?". If the country has a port, there is a good chance I've been there.

I hope to have about 5 states filled in this year and will make a trip west next spring. I'll catch up with you guys soon enough, one state at a time.

I used a photo program to open my avatar in after saving it to my hard drive. Once it was open there I had the ability to re-size it and then I saved it in a size that I could use. I hope this is a help for you!

1st map is without "Maxwell" the second one is with at least a night's stay in Maxwell. I hope to fill in a lot more soon...that's the reason we got the trailer! We'll be adding at least Idaho & Oregon (maybe Washington) this summer.

I've always wanted the states map but had no idea where to look. Thanks to 2air' for his direction to a new Bambi member that sent me to this thread. and to Grizzy (thank you!, another Bambi owner) for providing the link.

Visits with Bambi Gypsy only.

Here are mine. The first is all the states I've been too camping various ways (tent, rented motorhome, Airstream). The second on is the "pure" map of places I've been with Sparky only. Can't wait to add more to this map this summer!!

OOPS.. I made a mistake- I forgot to add Virginia to my Airstream map:

Here is one I use in another forum, now here!

OK ... here's our piddly map. 2 years on the road ... and we can't seem to leave the West!

Here are mine. Although, since I just got my Airstream, these are places I've travelled by bicycle, or my old VW Westfalia.

After almost five years of Airstream ownership, here's our whimpy map. This fall we'll add Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and Montana.

Thanks to MaxandGeorgia for asking and to Dennis for furnishing the information. I too wondered how to accomplish that.

Here is mine..... A good chunk in the last few weeks.
