U.S.A., U.S.A., U.S.A.!

From scenic canoe rides in Minnesota to jazz filled nights inside a "movie-theater-turned-concert-hall," the good ole United States has a lot more to offer than the dollar menu at McDonald's. The best thing I read this week was this online article titled, "This Is The ONE Thing You Must Do In Each U.S. State," by the Huffington Post, a thrilling exciting article for any travel enthusiast!

One event that caught my eye was the Balloon Glow that is known throughout the world that takes place here in New Mexico. This air balloon even is the largest in the world that has the sky filled with hundreds of balloons throughout the day! It is a weekend event that takes place in October, that costs around $300 for a ride that will be a  lifelong memory.

This online article grabbed my attention from the start with all the photographs of places, food and events that each state has to offer. I find it interesting how as Americans we are always looking for places outside our own country to travel to when our own home has so much to offer! Looking at this article makes me want to travel more throughout the U.S. and I definitely will be adding a few of these places on my bucket list!
