POSTCARD TRAVELER TRIP THROUGH ALL US COUNTIES STOP #1 ESCAMBIA COUNTY
Saturday, August 2, 2014
NEW POSTCARD JOURNEY STARTING ESCAMBIA COUNTY FLORIDA STOP #1
A blogger buddy mentioned in one of his blogs today that a friend of his has visited EVERY county in the US.
I emailed back asking if he really meant EVERY county and he said yes.
According to the USGS there are 3007 counties in our country.
Got me thinking... that would be a fun Postcard Traveler trip!
So here we go... you are invited.
Since we are not limited by road travel we can go as the postcards flow!
We're starting in Florida... :
Escambia County first stop.
Love it over there:
Pensacola is its county seat...established in 1821...One of the two original counties.
Here's a neat postcard view from there :
We almost moved there before we decided on the Tampa area.
Beautiful beaches.
Don't forget your suntan lotion.
UPDATE:
1 county visited and 3006 US counties to go.
This trip is fun like Star Trek's "The Next Generation's" characters visits to their Holadeck . Like them we can stop when we want and go back to the places when we want. We can pick the postcards we want like they picked their characters, time and places. Originally I was going to do all the counties in one state and then move to another state. But that became boring. So that's what this update is all about. The Star Trek crew could go in and out and take breaks if they wanted. And that is what I have done also. Life has recently dealt me unexpected turns that took taken much of my time but now I am ready to travel again! So come along and join the fun
