doesn't the usa kinda look like a musical instrument you strap over your shoulder

Awesome thread. I've been looking for that Australian overlay for years.

SOME STATES THAT GET THEIR BORDER FUDGED BY CARELESS CARTOGRAPHERS:

ALASKA - Aluetian Islands are frequently left off and misspelled.
ARKANSAS - Has two indentions: One in the northeast corner and one in the southwest.
DELAWARE - Is this really a state?
FLORIDA - That little part that juts up into Georgia a bit.
GEORGIA - See above
HAWAII - Oahu and three other little circles does not make a map of Hawaii.
IOWA - Has a sizable bulge on the eastern side.
MISSOURI - don't forget the boot heel!

Man, some of those old electoral maps look strange in today's context.

Pleasant Plains, Tuesday, 25 March 2008 13:58 (sixteen years ago) link

MINNESOTA - That little tic of a state park that you can only get to via Canada.
NEVADA - Has six sides, not four.
NEW MEXICO - The panhandle down near El Paso.
NEW YORK - Long Island, surprisingly enough. It's like the Tasmania of the Empire State.
SOUTH DAKOTA - Not a perfect rectangle, thanks to the Missouri River.
WEST VIRGINIA - Wheeling is not in Ohio.
WISCONSIN - Does not have an upper peninsula.

The whole "visited here / stayed here" thing threw me off too. I "stayed" in a motel room in Ohio once before continuing the drive into Kentucky the next day while I have "visited" Georgia, spending most of a day touring the Coca-Cola and Carter museums in Atlanta. Should Ohio be worth more points? I finally decided no.

Poor Maryland and Delaware the only states where I don't think my feet ever touched the ground. They're very easy to drive through.

I really need to hit the Northwest sometime.

Westermann never provided any meaning or subjective interpretation to his various works, stating "It puzzles me, too,"

129 or 113 depending on how the vist/stay is interpreted.

someday i need to fly into Memphis and drive a loop through ms, ar, ok, ks, and mo in one day and then to Boston to tick off the rest

honestly you don't need to pass through the gateway arch in this maze, but you can and it's definitely recommended

z_tbd, Wednesday, 13 December 2023 17:59 (four months ago) link

...on second thought, and with even more honesty, i spent 30 seconds overlaying a google map of the US onto the maze, and perhaps the gateway arch is located in the entrance/exit to the right, so perhaps you do need to pass through the gateway arch in this maze. it's difficult to tell because lake michigan was destroyed in the giant usa maze disaster of 2023

It looks like you might need to cross into Mexico briefly, so you will need to bring ID and be prepared to deal with Customs and Immigration.
