And the winner is....

The winner for worst state in the US is: Pennsylvania!  Aside from the perpetual construction and intermittent rain, Pennsylvania is also the home of the nations frumpiest rest areas and most NASCAR decals per capita. This flyover state also boasts a wonderful array of radio selections, including 1) country music 2) religious talk 3) country music with religious themes and 4) static.  So if you ever want to feel better about the state you live in, go visit Pennsylvania, the ugly friend that Ohio, West Virginia and New York hang out with so they look hotter.

Rachel and I completed what will probably the last road trip of substance before the kid is born, and it went surprisingly well considering Rachel has a bladder the size of a gnat, and now Zia is sitting firmly on said bladder.  We had a lot of laughs creating off-color songs about our hatred for Pennsylvania while visiting every rest stop we passed, and whittling our list of baby names down to the same 3 we started with.  Also, little tip for the summer road trippers, while flip flops may be a comfortable alternative to shoes in the car, flip flops and rest stops are not a good combination!
