Dream List #1: States/Territories

In a recent conversation, someone mentioned that I'd done a lot of things.  It made me take a look at my dream list, and I realized that I have marked off quite a few things that I'd like to do.   I've also visited a lot of places that are on my dream list.  This is the list as of today (10/25/18), and of course the ZERO interest states could definitely change.

Contiguous states that I've visited thus far....
1. Virginia
2. North Carolina
3. Tennessee
4. Georgia
5. South Carolina
6. West Virginia
7. Delaware
8. Maryland
9. Indiana
10. Illinois
11. Louisiana
12. Florida
13. Nevada
14. California
15. Texas
16. Washington, DC ( I know it truly isn't a state, but go with the flow)
17. New York
18. Ohio
19. Pennsylvania
20. Connecticut
21. New Jersey

***And although I've visited these states, there are still more cities within these states that I'd like to visit.  When the "make a list" spirit hits me again, I'll list those separately.
