We had just a couple stops to make on the New Hampshire coast. It made way more sense to catch those now when we actually had the coast along the route. We toured inside the historic USS Albacore submarine. The submarine has an interesting history and the story of how they got the sub where... Continue Reading →

Ok, I'm just going to tell you now, get up and get a cup of coffee, find a comfy spot, and settle in because I should have broken this post into two posts due to the length but I didn't know it was going to be so long (like this sentence) until well..it got too... Continue Reading →

Yep, Live Free or Die is New Hampshire's State Motto. Love it. New Hampshire has a more rugged outdoor vibe to it than Vermont does. We drove through White Mountain National Forest. Even though there was some rain, the drive was beautiful. We were ready to get back to hiking but there were a few... Continue Reading →

You and I both know, we had to go through Michigan to get to Canada from Wisconsin and I talked about the Upper Peninsula and dinner already. But I wasn't ready to write about Michigan because I knew the bulk of it would be after Canada. We didn't get to see the Great Lakes Shipwreck... Continue Reading →

Wait! Wait! I have to back up to before we reach Canada because I forgot to mention dinner. The sweet couple at the football game, I mentioned in the last post, told us we needed to try pasties in the U P and that everyone goes out for a fish fry for dinner on Fridays.... Continue Reading →

Well, I haven't forgotten that I promised you cheese and football. We left Lake Geneva and headed to Appleton, a city about 30 minutes outside of Green Bay. We were a little early for check in so we took the kids to Fritsch Park and let them play for a while. The weather has been... Continue Reading →
