Paul and I are headed west to Colorado in three weeks (WooooHoooo!). Taking a completely different route this time (MA, NJ, MD, VA, NC, SC, GA, etc. etc). We are definitely spending a day or two each in Chesapeake Bay and the Outer Banks.
Anyone have any other places en route that they just love and want to share with us? Can’t wait to catch up with our CO friends towards mid August…Paul is sure looking forward to a pint or two with friends!
Savannah!! It’s an absolutely lovely town/small city. Highly recommended. Have a great road trip!!
Paul’s up for it – check the mailbox for a postcard in a few weeks : )
Go to Assateague Island when you are in Maryland. Stay away from the DC suburbs. Ocean City boardwalk is (or was, anyway) the old-school beach experience of American lore.
If I may suggest, take the extreme southerly route west (US Highway 90) from Pensacola to at least N’awlins. It cuts through the heart of “Katrina Country” and is something every American should see.
Looking forward to seeing you, and that pint!
Nice! Thanks, Sean. Can’t wait to be “on the road again!” Stay tuned for fun and exciting posts on our travel adventures…I think you are off on your own vacay as of today – yay!
I don’t care how you get here. Can’t wait to see you!!!!
Hee Hee you funny. We need to get together with Sadie – she sold the house and we must celebrate : )
Figures! We will be headed to Massachusetts on August 8 for a couple of weeks. I had thought we might meet up for cocktails in my old stomping ground!!! Oh well, have a wonderful and safe trip.
Poo! Maybe we will still be in CO by the time you return. Have a wonderful time in MA. Did you sell the post and beam???
It will be great to see you two brave nomads !
Very happy to be coming back to visit. I am proud of us and our recent accomplishments : ) We basically rock, don’t we?
This from Libby of CO:
“Take the ferry from Cafe Hatteras to Okracoke Island, see the wild horses, funky arsty stores and Blackbeard museum. Climb the Cape Hatteras lighthouse, go to Kitty Hawk if anywhere close to there – my personal favs!! Most important, hurry up and get here!! When will u be here? We must have a party!!!”
Thanks to you and a few others, we are staying on Okracoke Island for three days (we were going to stop there anyway but it sounds like this place deserves a bit more than that). Thank you for all of the great ideas! We will definitely have to party down next month : )
ooh, could i PLEASE be on the list of ‘must see’ peeps!!?? do i have to beg? what weekend will you be in CO?
We are aiming for August 14th…would love to see you sweet friend. Would love love love to get together, the six of us! Will keep you posted as the time draws nearer – one more month or so – yipeeee!
Evergreen looks forward to receiving you back (and having a pint or two in your honor!)
Can’t wait to be kicking back with the old crowd…see you soon, beautiful!
Drive safe and can’t wait to see both of you!!!
Will do, Susan. Maybe we can meet up at Billy’s Pub for a cold one?!?
I look so forward to seeing you in Evergreen…. will you have time to come by for a sit on the deck? May I host a get together with a few ladies? Or ladies and gents? Brunch? Dinner Party? Let me know, ’cause it’s one of my favorite things…..
Thanks, Denise, would love to hang out on the deck! We are still trying to come up with an actual arrival date…
