[Former President tack50]

Another trip to the beaches in the south of the island means that now San Bartolomé de Tirajana and Santa Lucía de Tirajana get upgraded to an actual visit instead of a drive-trough.

I also add a surprise visit to Valleseco, which means I had to drive through Arucas and Teror



Visited
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
Telde
Santa Brígida
Mogán
San Bartolomé de Tirajana
Valleseco
Santa Lucía de Tirajana

Drove through
Ingenio
Agüimes
Arucas
Teror

In terms of future additions, there is a decent possibility (but by no means a guarantee) that Arucas gets upgraded to a full visit soon. Not much else though, and ticking off the rest will be much harder

[RINO Tom]

Updated mine after a very lovely weekend in Door County, WI.

[RINO Tom]

The lady and I were in Colorado for a week to celebrate both her friend's and my friend's birthdays at separate airbnbs in the mountains, so I added the following!

Denver, CO (Airport and Friend 1's apartment)
Adams, CO (Drove through from DIA to downtown Denver)
Arapahoe, CO (Friend 2's house in Englewood)
Jefferson, CO (Drive from Denver to Breckenridge)
Clear Creek, CO (Drive from Denver to Breckenridge)
Summit, CO (airbnb in Breckenridge)
Grand, CO (airbnb in Winter Park)

Two things I took away from the trip:

1) I am never buying a car without four-wheel drive again, haha.  We drove up to Winter Park during an awful snow storm (yeah, yeah, dumb idea ... have a great story now) where we literally couldn't see more than 10 feet in any direction outside the car.  The car did great, though!

2) Altitude is the real deal.  Holy shlt.  I rarely if ever get bad hangovers, but I woke up that first morning with a headache like I have never had before.  If people ever regularly feel like that after a night of binge drinking, I salute you for your toughness.  Yikes.

[Lechasseur]

These are the départments I've been to in 2020, and as we're in lockdown again and likely will be until the end of the year, I almost certainly won't go to any others this year:

I'm glad to see this is still a thread, since I like to post my additions as a collector of counties. I can give a summary of travels so far in this crazy year for travel.

January - business trip to CA
February - mini road trip to Savannah GA

pandemic hits

March/April - a total of 5 counties in IL the fewest in a similar period in over a decade
May - a day trip to hike in a reopened IL state park and a day trip to see family in an outdoor socially distance setting in WI
June - a weekend trip to MI newly reopened with fairly strict COVID protocols
July - a weekend trip to state parks in southern IL

August - took a COVID test with a negative result to be able to fly to AK and visit my freshman roomate and tour the interior. It was my 50th state to visit. I also a weekend the MI UP which was still showing low rates.

September - after self-quarantining for 2 weeks I drove to NH to help my son move into his apartment for grad school. The apartment is in MA, but their Covid rules prevented me from staying overnight so I took day trips from NH to help him move in. Late in the month I visited a friend in northern MN, and from there drove across the state to see some brilliant fall colors along the border.

October - a day trip to an IL state park to enjoy more fall colors

November - a trip to NW AR residing in a fully equipped condo with day trips to see more fall colors, and conduct some business and see family with appropriate distancing. I'm now self-quarantining to get ready for a Thanksgiving week visit to family in NH.

Here's a map of my travels. Red and magenta are counties first visited in 2020. Blue and green are counties visited in a prior year as well as 2020. Red and blue counties were slept in overnight during 2020. Yellow are prior counties only visited by airport/boat/rail coach.
