As for starring the ones I love, it totally depends on where you are going within a state. Most states, western states at least, are very large. There are parts that I love and parts that I hate. New Mexico, California, Colorado, Arizona...well all of them that I've listed actually (yes, even Nevada) have wonderful places that I love---and places that I have no desire to ever return.
Ooh- GREAT procrastination tool!
