    Arizona. Everything pretty is so far off its practically an illusion. Everything within eyesight looks dead to someone who grew up in a non arid place and it's all mixed in with wind blown trash and discarded metal/plastic. And then there's the homeless camps and Phoenix razor wire...

    As my uncle used to say, the best thing coming out of Oklahoma City was I-40 :)

    In my opinion, Lake Eufaula was the only thing in the state that approached "scenery".

    To me, every part of Florida that's not within 5 miles of the ocean. Like being in a big, flat, unpainted, run-down mobile home.

    The city that I find the ugliest is Wichita. Kansas is ok. Other cities suck to drive, or can be dangerous. Wichita makes me say "yuck!"

    I was going to say the same thing. That lake saved it from my list.

    While I'll say Kansas is mostly ugly, I like driving it. It's like an old, ugly friend.

    OTOH, Wyoming is a beautiful enemy.

    Wyoming makes my list of the prettiest and certainly most unique states.

    The Grand Tetons? Amazing.

    Jackson Hole? Maybe a little snooty but pretty amazing.

    Yellowstone? Amazing.

    Cody is pretty sweet.

    Lots of amazing National forests and mountain ranges. Really really high up, the whole state, has plains (or high desert) at like 7-8k feet if I'm not mistaken. Lowest population density of any state, entire state has population of around 500k. For most that live there (not the mega-rich few) they are tough as nails, cowboys etc. Wyoming is a special place imo.
