    Great lens. I will take a month this summer or next summer and turn this into a memorable road trip. Thanks for sharing.

    I've visited and/or passed through most of these states and Maine was my favorite which I visited in the year 2000. I spent a few days at Acadia National Park and would love to go back again to see Acadia and other scenic places in Maine.

    Fantastic lens! Except the part about Washington... On the east side of the mountains, we get quite a bit of snow! We've had several days of 2-3 feet of snowfall in 1 day! Love the rest, though!

    Beautiful photos. You don't get to so many of those scenes without getting OFF the interstate! As a bicycle tourist, I almost always find interstates and the kind of jumbles of building they tend to attract singularly ugly, and I try to scout routes to spend as little time possible in their proximity. For the most part I'm not even allowed to ride on them, anyway!

    Thanks for sharing your insight and experience. My advice: two wheels. Back roads. It might take more time, and there will be hassles. But you'll get to know the places you cross!
  • tinypearls Jul 14, 2011 @ 6:36 pm | delete
    I agree about the interstates - must use the secondaries to see the good stuff.

    Great lens, I am looking forward to our trip over there, at some point..lol

    back in 2007 we went on a month long road trip up north canada to smith falls, ottawa it was gorgeous up there. I wish I would have taken more pics. we plan to go back again and see montreal and quebec next time.. i've added you to my blog roll photo and video lens of niagara region in ontario canada.

    beautiful pics. Thank you for sharing them!

    I'm actually planning a very similar road trip in the coming months, so this lens is both useful *and* excellently-written! Also, I appreciate that you distinguished upstate NY from NYC (not that I would expect otherwise, since you're from nearby MA). I love that photo of the Hudson River Valley -- and, for the record, yes, some parts really are that gorgeous. The Adirondacks are beautiful as well, so I was happy to see a mention. I'll definitely look back at this for my own road trip. Awesome lens!

    I made a Nothern Cali, Oregon, Washington State trip and I loved Crater Lake. It was so unique! Beautiful lens, it must have taken a while.
  • FreebieChick Dec 16, 2010 @ 7:00 am | delete
    Thanks for sharing and being so detailed. It helps to know what to expect and what to watch out for. Now I can't wait to take this road trip.

    Michigan, but to be fair it's because I'm from there. There is so much to discover in Michigan, and I have yet to make it to the U.P.
  • jeffwend Nov 16, 2010 @ 1:17 pm | delete
    I'm with you. I love Michigan. We go to Lake Michigan as often as we can in the summer. It is better than the ocean in my opinion, no salt and no sharks =)
  • WriterBuzz Oct 6, 2010 @ 4:51 am | delete
    Very nice lens. Thanks. I gave you a thumbs up, because it's a nice lense.

    Wow you have some awesome information here! Very helpful and useful! I featured this on my lens titled The New Alpine Coaster in Duluth, MN - for fun things to do in Minnesota. Great job!
  • janices7 Jul 26, 2010 @ 8:52 am | delete
    Gorgeous lens with great photos and information! From Minnesota, I've done a loop west and a loop east so I've covered the entire thing. The great thing about doing the western loop is that we went the southern route that you have shown and then came back on a more northerly route so we got to do Seattle, glacier national park in northern Montana which was FABULOUS, and North Dakota. You always have such great travel lenses!
