I feel very fortunate in that I have traveled to so many wonderful places. I have 3 of these United States left to visit and plenty of time left to do it as they are all in the same place and small states. I have been to The Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Death Valley, Banff, Lake Louise, The Cagary Stampede, Yellow Stone, Shiloh, The Alamo, Durango, Montezuma's Castle, Sedona, Mount Rushmore, Niagra Falls, the top of the Empire State Building, Big Sur, The Russian River, Zion, the special management area of Sequoia, Bryce Canyon, Golher Wash, Hoover dam, Lake Powell, Navajo Canyon, Davis Dam, Imperial Dam, Parker Strip, Copper Canyon, Catalina, the north shore of Oahu in February and this is only the beginning. Best places? All of them because they all had their own beauty and intrigue.... All I can say is travel and there is a lifetime of things to see.
