Today was a driving day. We left Boston, MA, and drove through Connecticut and New York on the way to Lyndhurst, New Jersey. If the weather holds up, we'll be visiting Ground Zero tomorrow. Now then. On with the contest!
Win a software collection
Here's how to enter. So far, we have staying in Jacksonville, MO; Champaign, IL; Dayton, OH; Cleveland, OH; Niagara Falls, Canada; Bennington, VT; Bernardston, MA; Saugus, MA; and now Lyndhurst, NJ. On our way back to Edmond, OK, we will be staying overnight in NINE additional cities.
To win the software prizes, simply click the YOUR COMMENTS link below and enter your guess in the form. Be sure to put your name and email address, along with your entry. Be sure to name nine cities and their state in the order you believe we will be visiting them.
HINTS
I will select a winner from the entries by determining who has the most destinations correct. In case of a tie, I will check to see if the order will make one more correct. If there is still a tie, I'll choose a random winner. The winner will be chosen when we leave Lyndhurst on the 23rd of October.
Ready? Set? Guess!
It's Del.icio.us!

Its nothing like the Oklahoma drivers!!!LOL!
*honk*honk*honk* (even though they cannot move an inch!!lol!
Hope the weather is great for you...if you guys have time,
the double decker buses are pretty neat to travel all over town and get some great photos from riding on top level and take in a lot of sites, we went there and really enjoyed it..we would have spent more time touring if the weather would have allowed us also but it rained :(
take care and enjoy the day!

I think the following locals the best bet [no pun intended]
1.Philadelphia, Penn. [where it all began]
2.Washington D.C. [where it all ended]
3. Williamsburg, Va. [too many historical things happened here to mention]
4. Charlottesville, VA (for Monticello if nothing else]
5. Charleston, SC [something else began here]
6. Savanah, GA [don't even think about entering the south with out stopping here]{6a. Jacksonville, FL. (I live here and could show you around, many historical sites near by}
7. Valley Forge, Ohio [just because]
8. Detroit, Mi. [a different kind of revolution started here]
9. Cicago, Ill. ['meat packers to the world', about time for dinner and a night on the town as your journey comes near to end]
10. Memphis, Tenn. [A great port, both here and in ancient Egypt]
After all this traveling you'll go home to a well desreved reat
