   |  If you had the chance to go on a Road Trip to the NE...
If you have the chance to on a Road Trip to the NorthEastern US, where would you go?
As always, its that time of year again. We're planning our vacation to the cabin in Maine. I like to drive it, thats half the fun. When I was little, we always drove to wherever we were going for vacation and I have a lot of fond memories doing so. We've been to DC, NYC and the great state of CT, lol!
Heres the route we take... Starting in TN, I-40 to I-81. Take I-81 through VA, WV, MD to I-84 in Scranton, PA. Then we take 84 through PA, NY, CT and MA, there somes other road, cant remember right off that we take in MA to I-495 around Boston. We jump on I-95 outside of Boston and take it all the way to past Augusta, Maine.
Ive been super busy this year, so I havent had a lot of time to prepare for this trip. Its roughly 1300 miles one way so I need a break inbetween here and there. We usually take the break and go site seeing.
Heres a rough map of the way we go...  _________ Got Questions? Need Answers?

Maybe when my daughter is older though, it would be a good history experience for her. IMO | |

saranac lake ny, next to lake placid, you can rent and entire island with a camp site on it for 12 dollars a site. some islands you have completely to your self.
not that its close to your travels , but having an island to yourself for 12 bucks is sweet.
also the niagara river has some of the best bass/salmon fishing on earth.
bass masters was held here for the last 2 years.
trust me reeling in a salmon below the falls rapids is quite an experience.
