The saying "Go west young man" which has been attributed to Horace Greely (though he claims to have never said it) seems appropriate here. The furthest west I've been was Chicago when I served in the Navy.
If you decide to visit the Four Corners Monument which is the only place in America where four states are said to be intersect, check out this page for the latest on whether that's the actual location where those legendary lines cross. The lands beyond that storied city are on my wish list as that's some beautiful country out there. You picked a nice little corner of America to visit!
