*List of states visited:
Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, California, and Oregon.

Although we didn't officially start our road trip in Alaska, the trip did really start when we left Sitka on the boat.

Add to this the fact that we had been in Montana, North Dakota and Michigan the year before on our Christmas trip and it means Madeline has visited forty of the fifty states before she turned two.
