Old school driving vacation
Thinking of planning a late august driving trip with the family this summer. I say old school as we usually fly everywhere as grandparents are distant. Will have a 4 and 10 year old. Probably thinking about a week.
Ideas? |
vodka and earplugs

That's a given. I need a heading though...

Rent a house on a lake in Maine, NH, Vermont, or New York. Helps if there are a lot of local happenings in the area like county fairs. Day trips from the house and back in the afternoon for a swim before dinner! And you might even fish!

your brave aren't you
youngins will need new thumb devices where ever you go |
you could always do the NH Tourist thing. Take the kids to Storyland, Santa's Village, Clarks Trading Post, Ruggles Mine, The Flume, and the other attractions up there. There's plenty of fishing in the area as well as well as Nature Hikes and such

There's a J Crew outlet up there for him if he feels inclined.....

stopping to see the Bears are great memories ** but remember that when a bear fills up your view finder window real fast on your camera better look up....because that momma bear is now pissed off and running right at you @ 40 mph (that happened to me) |
Nova Scotia. Plenty of B&B's along the way.

LOL, why is it I picture Spence being the father driving in the famous Norman Rockwell painting,
" GOING and COMING" :huh: :D |
Ocean City NJ, it's a dry town (so bring your own). The boardwalk is fantastic, amusement parks that are perfect for young kids, short ride south to Cape May Zoo short ride north to Philly or Atlantic City.

The Gettysburg , Amish area. Williamsburg , DC loop is fun . Renting an RV makes it even better

Check out Myrtle Beach SC or Asheville NC. Both have great lodging at a great rates Myrtle has a ton of stuff to do particularly with kids your kids age. Asheville is just a nice town not much on the beach fun but nice hiking stuff etc.

Greenville Inn on Moosehead Lake. Rent a cabin. Did that when my kids were about that age. Best, most relaxing vacation that I ever had. Their dining is superior as well.

My ten year old is funny, he says he's only going if he's flying first class. Kid may be spoiled with his travel… Need to pack some bologny and mustard on white bread. -spence |
