Another summer is upon us and this year the planning started very early. There are only 2 states that I have not stepped foot in. One is Alaska and one is Maine. We decided it was time to make a push for the east coast. We are taking a northern route initially to try and stay as cool as possible. With our trip last year the theme was hot and muggy. This year it will be hot and muggy, but we are trying to keep somewhat cool for as long as possible (I personally could care less if we are hot and muggy). So Maine it is…we will have long days for the first few days and then we will slow down a bit to take in the scenery. The kids are leaving a week early and heading to Canada with their grandparents. We are meeting them in Fargo, ND.

On this year’s agenda we have:

2 Amusement Parks

4 National Parks

Maple Syrup Tour

All 5 Great Lakes (Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie and Ontario)

2 Headwaters

31 States

My navigational skills are going to take a beating this year. Toll roads, A LOT of heavy traffic and east coast drivers might send me over the edge.

Follow us as we take on a new adventure and see new sights that we haven’t seen before. I don’t expect that it will be perfect, but isn’t that what an adventure is about?

We are Eastbound and Down!
