The object of The States Game is to be the first to travel to all 50 states. Airports don't count.
Thursday, Grandpa Ken won, going from 49 to that elusive - West Virginia. Sunday will have been 87 years in the making. For his birthday, Dad bought them both plane tickets to Charleston.
Did I mention they're Couchsurfing? Really Couchsurfing with a retired Army lawyer at his mountain lodge. And visiting the capital and going for a driving tour of "the nature."
Isn't that a great trip! Except Dad also gets West Virginia.

err...make that 82--at least for the next 2.5 months!
What a wonderful gift for your Dad to give Grandpa K. Sounds like they had a great time. What is your state grand total, Hannah, and will the game now be extended to include countries of the world? If so, are you in the lead? Love to you-Michelle
