7...
6...
5...

That was it. I had 5 left: Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Minnesota.

I was thinking I was leaving out a New _________ state.

Connecticut and Delaware make sense. I felt that was my weakest area.

I missed four.

I'm impressed! I eventually had to resort to naming sports teams to come up with a few.
