I'm looking forward to a girls trip away. We have planned to drive down Eastern shorelines through Outerbanks to spend sometime. We will end our trip in Georgia, I can not wait to drive the scenic routes of the old mills and the beautiful waterfalls and Savannah and Atlanta as well. We are driving from Pennsylvania

Wonder why AARP doesn't mention/promote the US Parks Lifetime Senior Pass?

Yes, that would be helpful. @WebWiseWoman I’ve got mine, and glad I got it before they changed it to an orange blob.

We are also planning to move to another state to be closer to our daughter and her family. Decluttering the house in order to sell is what we are doing.

I will be celebrating being married to my best friend for 48 years this summer. Our current wonder/wander list included visiting all the lighthouses in the United States that are operated as B&B's. We have traveled to the Heceta Head Lighthouse in Oregon, the East Brother Light Station in San Rafael Bay, California (yes that meant arriving and departing only by boat), the Big Bay Point Lighthouse in Michigan, and this year will be the last one on the list, the Saugerties Lighthouse on the Hudson River in New York. Each one has been memorable for different reasons...the 7-course breakfast Oregon and spectacular coastline in Oregon, seeing closeup the long lost but recovered historic Fresnel lens in Michigan (and thankfully no hauntings as reputed), and being in the midst of a sailing regatta and a pod of whales in California. Can't wait to see what lies in store for us on this adventure!
