1) You can't get out of the city area around here. It's all one big city up until you get past B-More. However, I did go to DC yesterday, which is technically out-of-state as well as out-of-my-city-proper.
2) see 1. 3) 1999, 2 trips to Canada within about 2 weeks. |

It's hunting season so I travel around quite a bit in state to the different properties we hunt on. All are within 40 miles of each other but that area is about 70 miles from where I live (a small town of 4,000).
Leave the state about every week since I'm only about 15 miles from GA and they have cheaper gas(Sams Club) and the closest Walmart. Last time I left the country was in 1996 on a trip to the Bahamas. |

Well I'm currently out of town for the holidays.
I leave the city/county daily. I haven't left TX in a few months, but that is unusual. Never been out of North America. Been to both Mexico and Canada many times. I was planning to spend a semester in Europe, but If I want to get my BBA in a total of 3 years that isn’t going to happen. (I have 3 semesters left) |

I leave town about twice a week. I left Oregon yesterday. I had to drive up to Yakima WA and pick up my dog. I think it was 1985 since I left the country last.

Travel within ~200 miles pretty frequently, just got back home this afternoon.
Went to DC on Thursday night, which is technically out of state. Last time I went somewhere else out of state was a trip to NC over the summer. Haven't been out of the country since I got back from Saudi in '00.

Yeah, some people love it, some hate it. The newly married guys hate it  , the divorced guys are bitter that it ruined their marriage  , the guys that have been married forever like it  , and single guys live for it . I've given myself a few more years before I cave into the darkside so I'm relishing it right now. When I did consulting, I'd fly every weekend (free) to wherever, Vegas, Miami, Europe, Latin America, etc... and had the absolute best times but my body couldn't take it anymore juggling it with work. Now I'm my own boss and still get to travel but for weeks at a time (instead of days) and wouldn't have it any other way

Was in the west side of the state at Halloween.
Went to California middle of September. Was in Canada the end of October. I am going again Thursday to meet some friends. I average about every two or three weeks to Canada. I can go from my parking spot at work, through the tunnel into Ontario and to my parking space next door to the bar in seven minutes.

I go outside my city almost every other day.
I went to the Oklahoma state line last Sunday. I was in Niagra Falls and Toronto about 5 years ago. I was pretty close to the TX/Mexico border about 3-4 years ago, but never crossed. I don't really have any desire to travel to Mexico. The area from Buffalo to Toronto is not much to write home about. I'd like to go to Quebec or British Columbia someday. |
