Once again, we are on another road trip. This time, we have a three-day weekend corresponding to Friday the 13th. What better place to be on this spooky day than at the center of American folklore, Sleepy Hollow! We will begin our adventure on Thursday…
We had done a trip to Seneca Falls on a long weekend. This trip can be easily converted to a three-day journey to this area in New York during any time of the week or the year. I have created a map and an itinerary…
I love mini-stops. These are places where I put into our itinerary when we are travelling. Generally, it is a quick stop to look at something, snap a picture, and away we go to the next destination. But sometimes, a mini-stop turns into something bigger.…
