A Year in Cities

You're dying to know, aren't you: what cities did Matt visit last year? Well, here's a listing (besides my hometown of Westfield) of cities where I spent at least one night (following Jason's and Hanna's meme).

• Dayton, OH
• Danville, IL
• St. Louis, MO
• Nashville, TN
• Orlando, FL
• Panama City, FL
• Cullman, AL
• Washington, DC
• Tilton, IL

Not a very impressive list, now that I look back on it. I didn't make it to my new favorite city, Miami, last year (I went in 2003 and 2004), but the wife did. I didn't even go to my old favorite city, Chicago (again, the wife did - several times).

I spent nights in the most cities in 1992 and 1993, back when I was traveling with a college quartet. Most of the cities in 1992 were in Michigan - I got to know that state more than anybody who doesn't live there should - and in 1993 I was mostly in Virginia and Pennsylvania, with one night in Atlantic City, NJ (yes, I did go into a casino, Trump Taj Mahal - no, I didn't gamble).

UPDATE: I've been to Chicago this year - yeah! Okay, technically I stayed in Rosemont, but that's close!
