Re: NE Ohio to Glacier NP
We did that trip in 2009. We left Friday evening and drove to South Bend, IN area and then got up early and breezed through Chicago Saturday morning. Frankly, there is not much between Ohio and the Badlands. We stopped at Wall Drug but found it to mostly be a tourist trap. The Badlands were beautiful for a drive through. We stayed one night in the Black Hills/ Mount Rushmore and wish we had planned more time. Devils Tower was a nice stop for lunch and a short hike. We stayed on the east side of Glacier in the KOA and had very high wind events two nights in a row. We also travelled up into the Canadian side and above to Banff. All in all a lot of driving but very well worth it.299Views0likes0CommentsRe: Days for Boston area?
We've visited Boston several times but have never camped. Our daughter and son in law live there. As for how many days, it depends on how complete you want your trip to be. We keep finding new things every time we go. The Freedom Trail hits all of the highlights of downtown Boston but I have found it to be too long to walk the whole thing in a day and do justice to all the sights. We really liked the JFK musuem. Harvard has a very good natural history museum. Salem struck us as being touristy. If you decide to drive up to Gloucester, take the time to drive around the east coast on Atlantic Dr. and up to Rockport/ Halibut State park. The views were really enjoyable. Driving in Boston is difficult. There are many one way streets with the direction sometimes changing block to block and parking is an issue. The good news is they have a good and safe public transportation system. Good luck and enjoy!382Views0likes0Comments
