Hitting the road this summer...where to go first
We plan to retire in May and hit the road for, at least, a month or so. We live in Ohio. Just looking for suggestions where to go first. We have thought about New England or Nova Scotia.

and then CT for a night.
See that?
I've spent a minimum of 2 weeks based in CT for the last 9 years and STILL have a few spots to visit w/i the state and it's neighbors. And yes seafood is the answer to any question asked:).
Were I only to have a month or two to visit this region........I'd figure out what my interests are and concentrate on that. Pre and Revolutionary history? Mass, CT, VT, and NY; fine art museums? CT, MA and NY. The amazing views? VT, NH, MA, RI, and upper NY.
I once did a side trip that concentrated on different styles of rock fences..and uhm trust me, there's a lot of variations to be found whilst seeing the Connecticut River Museum (Gosh, I wuvv that place! And the boat and steam train trips), the Peabody Museum (another GOTTA get back to place in New Haven), Dinosaur State Park, the farms and diners of North East CT; and city and historical life of New London.
Next trip, I plan to spend more time in the Mystic region so the man can visit the Nautilus and I can eat at few RoadFood places I missed. Still haven't visited the Nathan Hale haunts but I keep telling myself there is time;).
