I have family that lives in VA. When I was younger and lived in NH, it was a 9 hour drive to their house. In those 9 hours, we hit NH, MA, CT, NY, NJ, DE, MD, and VA. I just moved to TX and it blows my mind that depending on which way I go, I could drive for 9 hours here and not even make it out of the state!
When driving here from Jersey, there were parts that dragged on forever. I never thought I would make it out of Tennessee!
It may sound weird, but to me, it just feels like you're actually making progress when you're constantly crossing into other states. It feels like such an accomplishment when you see a "Welcome to..." sign.
