Willis Tower, Chicago, Illinois

The largest building in the USA post-9/11. Formerly known as Sears Tower, but with an incredible view of the city known as "The Ledge." Just don't get there when its cloudy.

Union Station, Chicago, Illinois

Ah the days when trains were the way to travel. Now, the buildings sit almost empty. But the beautiful columns and construction still amaze visitors.

National Mississippi River Museum, Dubuque, Iowa

More interesting than it sounds

Fenelon Place Elevator Company, Dubuque, Iowa

A bit scary but it holds....

Herbert Hoover Presidential Grave, West Branch, Iowa

They're trying to spin that he was more than just the Great Depression...

Iowa 80 Truck Stop, Walcott, Iowa

They claim it is the World's Largest Truck Stop, complete with on-site dentist.

Kaukauna Locks, Kaukauna, Wisconsin

Nice peaceful water.

Lady Liberty, New York, New York

The most photographed icon - from the FREE Staten Island ferry (great way to get some nice views cheap).

Wausau, Wisconsin

Not bad scenery for the end of the road on I-39.

Hilton Washington Hotel, Washington, DC

Site of the 1981 Assassination Attempt on President Ronald Reagan

Amway Grand, Grand Rapids, Michigan

Quite the hotel for the West Coast (of Michigan)

Gerald Ford Library, Grand Rapids, Michigan

Not the most exciting president, but still managed to make it to being Commander-in-Chief, and a nice spot on the river in Grand Rapids

Supreme Court of the United States, Washington, DC

The final stop on the road to justice.

Grand Canyon National Park, Grand Canyon, AZ

The big ditch.

CN Tower, Toronto, Ontario

Yes towers with observation decks tend to attract tourists, even people who make a wrong turn. But how can you go thru Toronto without going up the CN Tower. And looking thru / standing on the glass floor!

Niagara Falls, Niagara Falls, Ontario

Where to begin? The legends, the tightropes, the barrels, the tourist traps that have sprung up around this amazing fall of water. And yes the mega hotels that give you views of it (assuming you're on a high enough floor).

Henry Ford Museum, Dearborn, Michigan

The Henry Ford Museum. Greatest collection of everything in America. Famous trains, Cars that have driven from the tip of South America to Canada (something I always thought about doing), and even old Presidential motorcades.
