State No. 45 - Kentucky

I learned of the Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Park from comedian Ariel Elias last year, & did not regret making the sightseeing visit one bit.  Located a little more than an hour driving south of Louisville, I drove to Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Park & then the actual location of the cabin he lived in for parts of his early life, the Boyhood Home at Knob Creek Unit.

When they built the main national historic park site in the early 1900s, they placed inside the memorial building the symbolic birth cabin.  While they thought it was the actual cabin, researchers eventually were  able to prove it was not the actual log cabin he was born in.

Note: 56 steps, his age when he was assassinated.

Sinking Spring, where Lincoln probably took his first water.

The cabin originally thought to be the boyhood home.

There's a game younger visitors can play (seen at the visitor center) as they learn more about Lincoln's path to the presidency.

From Ages 2 - 8, he lived in a log cabin near Knob Creek.  I actually made the drive up to the Knob Creek Tavern Visitor Center (15 minutes).  Hattie Howell Howard along with her husband Chester purchased the Knob Creek Farm in 1928 & wanted to preserve the land & share stories of Lincoln's early years.  They built the tavern in 1933 to serve the growing number of tourists.

Two Abraham Lincoln Headbust statues.  I drove over to a nearby town to see the full statues.

After taking some time to address a potential medical issue, I eventually made my way the Big Four Bridge connecting Indiana & Kentucky.

During my trip, I ate Burgoo (A hearty stew of at least 2 varying meats & various vegetables) multiple times & pulled pork.  I loved them both!

My chess playing was random.  I had 3 draws, a 4th round loss, & a last round win.  I fought hard, but overall my opponents had significant winning chances in each of the first 4 rounds.  

I have decided to show my last two rounds because it featured me playing an opening setup I do not believe I have ever played over the board in my career (a double queen pawn opening without c4) as White.  I am still trying to work out the kinks in this setup, but going 1 out of 2 versus higher rated opponents can't be too bad.

Round 5 was one of my shortest games ever, 13 moves 25 minutes.  It was the same first 5 moves or so as game 4, but my opponent went a different path here.  I won a pawn on move 13 and he resigned on the spot.

Round 5

The tournament was run pretty well.  Daro Mott picked a pretty good site with free parking & a pretty good building.  The air conditioning on the playing room unfortunately was broken on Sunday, so the room was pretty hot and I know I spent more time outside the playing room than in it.  I did think the room was a bit cramped & there could have been more room in between the chess playing tables.  I do definitely want to come back if get a chance.

In a refreshing throwback, there were two people on site selling chess items - books, clocks, special chess items, shirts, etc.  You rarely see that nowadays as there aren't a lot of people buying chess stuff at tournaments any more, so I made sure to buy two things - a tournament t-shirt & a new chess tie.

And finally here are the updated #fiftystatesofchessmaps (I used mapchart.net to create these, been doing so since the 2010s)

I think that does it for Kentucky.  The rest of the pictures (including selfies) will be posted on my instagram.

State No. 44 - Rhode Island

So, on this trip, I drove up to Rhode Island.  Along the way, I stopped by the Merritt Parkway Museum & the International Tennis Hall of Fame.

The Merritt Parkway Museum is a free museum located in a multiple-office building.  They have lots of pictures, artworks, & descriptions of the history of the Merritt Parkway, how it was built, and other interesting topics. The Merritt Parkway itself is on the National Register of Historic Places.

As many people driving from the New York Areas to the New England Areas may have discovered, the Merritt Parkway is an interesting highway with lots of great views of the countryside while one drives (hopefully legally) along.  The Merritt Parkway has just two lanes of traffic in each direction & no trucks allowed as the bridges have lower height clearances & there are quite a few horizontal & vertical curves throughout this roadway.

Interesting that there was a Mr. First character.

The Merritt Parkway has significance to me as I have used it several times in my driving trips to the New England region & I always enjoyed this part of the trip on sunny days.

After the Merritt Parkway, I transferred over to I-95 & saw a billboard for the Pez Visitor Center.  Since I had a late start, I calculated that I did not have time to take this detour, which is unfortunate. I do like Pez candy & I do have a Yoshi Pez dispenser that doesn't get enough use.  I would love to visit this at some point one day.  Maybe on my trip to New Hampshire or if I go back to Rhode Island at some point in the future.

After eating at Mystic Diner, it took me roughly another hour of driving to reach the International Tennis Hall of Fame.  It seems to me only street parking is available for this place.  

I have played & watched quite a bit of tennis throughout my life, so it was fun to go through the International Tennis Hall of Fame.  I got to see different racquets, different cans of tennis balls, & other interesting facts & memorabilia, even of players I hears but didn't get to see play & players I was too young to remember that I saw play.

It is December, so no one is playing tennis outdoors in temperatures this cold.

I got to watch a few favorite tennis moments as well as tennis moments I didn't remember.

I shared some other pictures from the ITHOF on my instagram post here.

I did take pictures of a state route sign in Rhode Island.  They pattern their state route signs with an R.I. on the top.

The tournament on Saturday was held at the New England Institute of Technology, East Greenwich Campus in East Greenwich, Rhode Island.  It was a beautiful venue with lots of free parking, & the tournament was well organized by Frank DelBonis.  The rounds were pretty much mostly on time (printer issue Round 1), the open section had only one board per table in the top ten plus boards, & equipment was provided for all of the open section & most of the U1600 section that I could see.  Spectating was not allowed, so if you finished your game you have to leave the playing room.  They did have at least one skittles room & multiple parent rooms around.  (And yes, I was amused that one parent thought I had a kid playing in the tournament.)

I ran into some personal issues the night before & morning of the tournament, so my play wasn't as sharp as it could have been.  (You can see it even in my two wins.)  I lost to a 2007, then beat a 1399 & 1338 before losing to an 1896.  As of the writing of this paragraph, I do not know how my 1867 rating will be affected.  I do sincerely doubt that I won a prize, so I marked the chess maps accordingly.

I am going to show my second round game because I think it shows a basic theme that is helpful to know when first starting to play.

I also want to showcase something about trade offers & zwischenzug from my Round 3 game that I think you would enjoy. 

Now remember, just because you are offered a trade, doesn't mean you automatically accept it.  

In this first diagram, I wanted to trade light bishops so he doesn't have two Bishops, my pawns aren't in the way of my light Bishop, & I have greater chances of trying to control the e4 square.  However, I don't want to develop his Queen to g4 threatening Qxg7 mate. 

Round 3 - White played 10. Bg4, trying to trade light square Bishops.

So I played 10. ...Qd7, getting my Queen to f5 if he trades Bishops, which he eventually did after 11. Ne5 Qe6 12. Bxf5 Qxf5.

After 10. ...Qd7, White eventually trades Bishops & my Queen gets to f5.

In this third diagram, White played 20. Bd2 trying to trade all the Rooks.  I am not required to trade the Rooks, so I opt to improve my position instead.

Round 3 - After 20. Bd2 trying to trade Rooks.

I instead play 20. ...Re2!  Now, I can't take the Bishop because the Rook on e8 is exposed.  However, I am threatening to double up on the second rank with 21. ... Qxc2.  He can't guard the c2-pawn because it hangs the Bishop.

After 20. ...Re2! White can't guard the c2-pawn without losing his Bishop.

It was fun sharing experiences & stories with both TD staff & other players.  There was at least one person there who was at the tournament for his 9th state, & Frank told me someone (I forgot who & don't want to get the name wrong from bad memory) finished his 50th state in Rhode Island.  

Now, there was a shooting at Brown University that Frank learned about during the last round of the tournament.  Frank did a great job of keeping everyone calm while informing us of the situation, telling us that he contacted security & that they secured the building, & that everyone was able to watch the award ceremony after the last round.

Normally, I would like to stay for the award ceremony after the tournament if circumstances allow.  However, I had a personal issue which necessitated me leaving & there was a snowstorm expected to hit New Jersey at around 10pm.  I thanked Frank for hosting the tournament & explained to him that I had to leave for reasons not related to the situation at Brown University.

The drive home was interesting.  I decided to put some gas in my car, just in case there was a detour I needed to take.  While it ended up being possible for me to delay a gas station trip until returning to New Jersey, I did the prudent thing & put gas just in case.  By the way, my out of state rant on gas stations continues: New Jersey gets it right.  I really hated going out of my car to go inside the convenience store just to pay for gas in cash.  Luckily, there were no food thieves of parents scolding kids for incorrect purchases like there were in my last trip in New Mexico, so I was able to gas up & leave the gas station without incident.

I tuned my phone somehow to listen to the Knicks vs Magic NBA Cup Semifinal game on my rental car's radio & listened to that as I drove back.  I made it all the way to the northernmost service area on the Garden State Parkway before taking a break.  After I decided to leave, I noticed it had started snowing so I took a detour to Applegate Farms so I could notch another winter of eating ice cream or milkshakes during a snowstorm.  (I don't know how many times I have done this, but it's fun to stand outside eating ice cream or drinking milkshakes while snow is falling.)

I made it safely home shortly after the ice cream stop, & that concludes the post for State No. 44 for #fiftystatesofchess

State No. 43 - New Mexico

I will start with the chess first.

Due to a work meeting change known earlier this month, I switched my vacation & played in the 2025 Emiliano "Mike" Perea Memorial 2.0 hosted by the Albuquerque Chess Club

https://www.abqchessclub.org/

This was a well run tournament, & this organization runs a lot of events.  If you are in the area, please go to at least one of them!  Even the second round delay was smooth, & G/60 Inc 30 is now my favorite time control!

As part of the welcome twist, all the games are online as they were broadcast with a 5-15 minute delay on the lichess website.

https://lichess.org/broadcast/2025-emiliano-mike-perea-memorial-open-20/round-1/CnfBp7Gl

You click on a round, you click on a specific game, & you can see all the moves of the game in question.

Thanks to all those on instagram who saw my posts & were able to watch even on delay the games from the tournament, whether it was mine or someone else's.

I won Round 1 against an candidate master / expert, lost to an expert, drew a C player, drew a C player, then beat an A player.

I will do commentary on all the rounds, because why not?

https://lichess.org/broadcast/2025-emiliano-mike-perea-memorial-open-20/round-1/CnfBp7Gl/WDGbgnpG

Round 1 - Sosa-Chen

Round 1 - After 12. Bxb7

The game started out as an English, & my opponent was able to clear the center of pawns quickly while I was trying to castle.  But there are consequences of grabbing a pawn as White found himself in some heavy pressure trying to hold on to the pawn as I was able to catch up in development.

Round 1 - After 15. ...Bxa2

The game was still very much in the balance throughout when he just dropped his bishop for no reason in the final position.  He may have intended to do that Bishop move after my Rook left the third rank but there was a move order issue & I was able to take the free Bishop.

Round 1 - After 33. Bd6?

Round 2 - Chen-Motley

https://lichess.org/broadcast/2025-emiliano-mike-perea-memorial-open-20/round-2/Yu9owZJe/e8gQb7GZ

Round 2 - After 35. ...Qe6

I had a chance to repeat the position with 36. R5d6 Qf5 37. Rd5, but I played 36. Qxa5 instead, which allowed him to open everything up.

Round 2 - After 41. ...Qc1

Last chance.  I had to play 42. f5 instead of 42. Qd7.  I had the right idea in that I had to bring additional pressure against his King, but this was not the way to do it.  He brought his Rook & Queen in & it was all over.

Round 3 - Serna-Chen

https://lichess.org/broadcast/2025-emiliano-mike-perea-memorial-open-20/round-3/4ke8Rhqt/zEcLLzHz

Round 3 - After 10. ...c5

From the Petroff, I tried to open the game too quickly while I was significantly behind in development.

Round 3 - After 20. ...Be6

Having to play 20. ...Be6 sacrificing a pawn to blunt the attack was not on my bingo card, but I had to address the long diagonal problems somehow.

He never took it outright, opting to try to improve his Rooks & Queen.  This game ended in a draw because I was able to trade rooks & then advance the isolated e-pawn to trade it off.  Now we have a Queen ending with no screaming advantage for either side.

Round 3 - After 33. ...e4

Round 4 - Chen-Acosta

https://lichess.org/broadcast/2025-emiliano-mike-perea-memorial-open-20/round-4/AIYlIB73/T6zCiqmr

Now the interesting thing about this game is that my opponent is a twitch streamer

https://twitch.tv/PawnToPro

So he probably covered it extensively from his side.

Round 4 - After 10. Qe2

I developed my light squared Bishop to c4, eventually allowing Black to execute the Fork Trick.  Here, I should have played 10. h3, as after the game continuation of 10. Qe2 Qxe2 11. Nxe2 Bg4 I can't avoid a trade of Bishop for knight that weakens my pawn structure.

The gaffe was exacerbated here.

Round 4 - After 18. Rd2?

I needed to play 18. Kg2 securing f3, as 18. Rd2? e5! 19. dxe5 Nxe5 20. Rfd1?? Nxf3+ is a winning fork.

Because of my incautiousness, he was able to grab the d-file, which is NOT what I wanted.

Round 4 - After 21. ...Rd8

So this was a very difficult ending to try to draw, let alone win.

Round 4 - After 40. ...g5

I didn't like this move (40. ...g5) at all for my opponent if he was trying to win, as I am not obligated to capture on g5.  If after 41. Kd3 he plays 41. ...g4, my Knight is now a blockading knight & his King can't really get in.  He needed to trade pawns & then run his h-pawn up the board, though this is easier said then done.

In the final position, only the knights can shuffle, & I have solid defensive squares as Black's king can't penetrate.

Round 5 - Chen-Marmer

https://lichess.org/broadcast/2025-emiliano-mike-perea-memorial-open-20/round-5/s8hMBX0k/MWlBVAxy#0

So this was a Gruenfeld Defense, & for a rare time in my career, (first ever?), I decided to vary on the 4th move, playing 4. e3 rather than the standard 4. cxd5 Nxd5 5. e4 Nxc3 6. bxc3

I was surprised when he played 6. ...Nbd7.  I was trying to figure out if this pawn sacrifice was intentional or not.

Round 5 - After 6. ...Nbd7

He used 29 of his remaining 44 minutes before playing 13. ...Nh6 later on.  The check on h2 doesn't work as 13. ...Bxf3 14. Qxf3 Qh2+ 15. Kf1 leaves Ke2 as an escape square next & Black doesn't have enough attacking forces to continue the attack.

Round 5 - Variation after 15. Kf1

With Black's mate threat nullified, I slowly built the position up, using the c-file as a way to penetrate Black's position.

Round 5 - After 27. Qb7

Black played 27. ...Bxe5 28. dxe5, but the double attack on f7 & b6 forced his hand. (Allowing Qxf7+ & Rc7 can't be good for him.)

With the dark squares in my hands & his weak back rank, I was able to play 31. Qxa8!

Round 5 - After 31. Qxa8!

as 31. ...Rxa8 32. Rc8+ Rxc8 33. Rxc8+ Kg7 34. Bf8+ & 35. Bh6# is decisive.  The game continuation of 31. ...Qg5 (threatening 32. ...Qxg2#) 32. Qxd8+ is not much better for Black as after 32. ...Qxd8 33. Rc8, even in the best case scenario with no imminent checkmate, I have two extra Rooks unopposed.

The last win got me to 3 points & into a tie for both 3rd place & top U1900!

And that concludes the chess portion of #fiftystatesofchess.  

This is the link to my quick picture post on instagram.  I will try to share some more pictures now, I will try to only show pictures not previously seen on the gram.

For the first time ever, I went on a hot air balloon ride, there with Rainbow Ryders

It was really nice to be up there, so peaceful, looking out over the landscape

Some additional framed prints of hot air balloon rides with looney tunes characters.

I also went to the turquoise museum in town.

There were some interesting pieces made with popular culture in mind.

I drove up to Santa Fe to walk along Canyon Road & look at art.  There was a lot of art there.

Finally, I wanted to show some pictures I took of the tournament venue when the organizer led me on a small tour.

These were all taken at the Albuquerque Institute of Math & Science at the University of New Mexico.  Fascinating place!  

And that concludes State No. 43, New Mexico.
