Kevin Hayden, the maestro of the American Street blog, is packing up and moving across the country from Oregon to Massachusetts. Along the way, he's going to be interviewing people and composing a written and video portrait.

I'd love to, but he's going to have to travel a lot farther east (and south) than Massachusetts for me to take part.
My US Geography is a bit rubbish, can someone give me a quick summary of the areas he will be passing through on the way.
@gavin #2: The 2nd link in PZ's post has maps of the route. Basically, some Pacific Northwest, through some of the northern states, the Upper Midwest, skirting the bottom edge of the Great Lakes, and through Pennsylvania to the Northeast.

Great idea. Just too bad he won't get any perspective from the South.
