Great trip to areas we hadn’t been to before.

The first stop was a place we’d never heard of or been to before. Very unique. We loved the small towns we stopped in and the town for lunch was our favorite. So many unique stores to see and a very cute town. We really enjoyed it. The park we visited prior to lunch I knew of but hadn’t been to before. We had some surprising animal encounters on the trails which turned out to be another favorite of the day.

The last stop of the day was quick for us. We’re not drinkers and had already walked quite a bit at the park so a few options were already out for us to choose from.

All in all a very memorable trip. Can’t wait to try another one.

Birthday Trip close to home

This trip was a lot of fun and it was close to fun which made it a mini adventure. The only reason I am not giving it a 5 is because the last stop when we googled it stated it was closed forever. It was ok because we had made it a long day and my family was tired. I would do this adventure again and am excited to do another one!
