From Atlanta to the Northeast: Part 2 Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont
Last week I wrote of our journey from Atlanta to Boston and Southern New Hampshire. This week, we will continue our journey through Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont.
Atlanta to the Northeast: Part 1 Virginia, DC, and Massachusetts
We left Atlanta around 3:30 a.m. on our greatest adventure ever. There is something exhilarating when leaving for a family road trip, not knowing what adventures await. Since we were pulling our camper, the trip would take a little longer than usual.
A Wintry Visit to Your Local Farmer’s Market
There is nothing quite like going to the local farmer’s market in the middle of summer. Who can resist the smell of fresh tomatoes, peaches, and cantaloupe? Recently, I began craving fresh fruit and vegetables. Unfortunately, it was December and cold outside. Of course, I can always go to the local grocer, but that’s not…
Preparing for the Ultimate Family Road Trip
Sean and I began the greatest adventure our family had ever set out on… a 32-day trip from Atlanta to the Northeastern United States and Canada. Sometimes when vacation planning, things fall into place. One thing that completely fell into place was an invitation to the wedding of our dear friends in Maryland near the…

How We Became Happy Campers

We Learned by Mistake: An Easier Guide to Planning Vacations
Our kids love history. When Sean graduated in 2012, we wanted to take them to Washington D.C. At the time, this two-week trip was our longest vacation we had ever taken as a family. Sean and I really wanted to maximize our stay because we were very excited.
Taking a Cruise: The Most Economical Vacation Ever
We like to take a Caribbean cruise at least once a year. Not only can you visit some of the most magnificent islands in the world, but you can also travel for a fantastic price. I had always wanted to cruise, but I thought it was something so far out of reach that I never looked into it much.
