Last Fall, around this time, I traveled to New England with family. My two nieces, sister in law, and my daughter took a road trip from Boston, up to Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, and finally New York state. I had always wanted to go in the Fall, and we finally just did it! The scenery was everything I expected...the pictures do not do justice to the foliage, which was breathtaking. It was all so quaint, perfect little homes, spotless highways, picket fences, covered bridges...perfect. I also thought that those residents live in a "bubble"...what a unique, quiet, peaceful lifestyle they must lead. We stayed in the little towns, and out in the countryside, avoiding the large cities. I did some sketching and painting. There was inspiration everywhere.
We rode a train, sampled apple cider doughnuts, ate lobster rolls, walked through a covered bridge, hiked along boulder strewn streams, and gazed at colorful hillsides and valleys. It's an amazing destination; if you have never been, you should plan to go. Just don't wait till you are 65!
