Today is contest day!

This week visited Delaware, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Wyoming, West Virginia and Louisiana.

Tera stopped by on Tuesday to give us some inside information on the Erie area. Be sure to check that out. Tera and Treye are making their way to matrimonial bliss tomorrow and I know we all wish them well.

But, before everyone takes off for the wedding, all passengers from the above mentioned states should report to their appropriate decks and tell us what makes your state the Taste of USA!

Up next week is Florida, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, South Carolina and Wisconsin.

PA - yay!

I've already shared a lot with you, but PA is "Tast of USA" because there are so many different places. You've got beaches and mountains, big cities and some serious countrysides, and so many great places to visit. I'm not sure if I mentioned this or not, but Erie has some of the best sunsets in the world. Come visit and I'll prove it to you!

I'm up early today...I can't sleep...go figure! I've gotta get outta here...lots of wedding errands to run!!!

GO PA!

TOP 20 REASONS TO VISIT PENNSYLVANIA:

20. The Amish people are awesome!

19. Lots of covered bridges make for great scenery.

17. We actually get all FOUR seasons.

16. Pittsburgh-ese is a lovely language.

14. Lots of the greatest colleges and universities in the country are here including Pitt and Penn State.

11. Another great attraction = the Pittsburgh Zoo. (Gotta check out the Polar bears!)

10. We've got cities, subarbs, country, etc. (It's Pittsburgh on the west, Philly on the East, and Kentucky in the middle... that's how the saying goes here in PA.)

GO PA!

I'm off to the church for rehearsal, but I'll say this.

Aside from the beaches, Erie is home to the Ravine Flyer II...the tallest wooden roller coaster built in 2008.

Ok, time to go practice getting married!

I'm from Pittsburgh so I obviously love the Steelers! I also am a big fan of Kennywood Park - even though I get sick when I go there. PGH is a beautiful city, especially when you come out of the tunnels. The entire city is chaotic because downtown is 1-way...every single street!

I gotta go to rehearsal with Treye...bye!
