Dear Reader,
Sandra, a friend of mine is visiting all 50 states this summer. I decided to pack my bag and travel along with her. Would you like to come along?
"Suzanne,
I decided to go on virtual trips to each of the 50 states in the USA this summer. I visit one state a day for an hour, and search for as many interesting attractions as I can find about that state. There are soooo many amazing places to visit in our country! I have been emailing what I discover to friends who love to travel. They are also enjoying my trips.
Here is an example of one of my virtual vacation emails...enjoy South Dakota!
Well we are traveling to South Dakota, the Mount Rushmore state, today. So look up and stare at the rock formations!
