Best Day Hikes on the Appalachian Trail

March 26, 2022

Hiking the Appalachian Trail can be whatever you want to make of it. After all, the trail spans over 2,100 miles and is housed within 14 states. So, while a multi-day thru-hike might be your thing, it’s totally understandable if you want to stick to the day hikes. Any Appalachian Trail map is going to show you some of the spots to check out along the most popular routes. But, if scouring over a full map of the Appalachian Trail isn’t in the cards for you, here are some of the best day hikes that you should be sure to check out.

Cove Mountain
Located in Tennessee, the hike up Cove Mountain is about 7.5 miles and gains an elevation of about 2,000 feet. The trek will include making your way across wooden bridges and even passing by a waterfall. Some of the other sites you can expect to see are the James River, the Town of Buchanan, and Purgatory Mountain. You’ll also get a good sighting of Cove Creek Valley.

Angel’s Rest
Don’t confuse this hike with the Angel’s Rest located in Oregon. This 4.5 mile hike is located in Pearisburg, Virginia. Though it isn’t very long, the trek does gain about 1,600 feet of elevation, which is sure to make you break a sweat. However, it’s well worth it when you reach the top and can take a rest atop the iconic boulder. The views of the New River and the town of Pearisburg aren’t too bad either.

Kelly’s Knob
If you’re looking for a more challenging day hike, check out Kelly’s Knob, which is also located in Virginia. This journey will lead you through the forest canopy to the knob, which is situated between Johns Creek Mountain and Clover Hollow Mountain. It’s a bit of a longer hike at 6.5 miles round trip, but you’ll have plenty of time to take in the sights around you as you go.

Blood Mountain
Blood Mountain, while it may sound daunting, is actually one of the best hikes in all of Georgia. It actually is said to have got its name from a battle between two Native American tribes. So, don’t worry. You’re unlikely to shed any blood on this mountain nowadays. Instead, you’ll enjoy some stunning scenery along its 4 mile loop.

Raven Cliff Falls
If you’re in North Carolina, you won’t want to miss Raven Cliff Falls. The trail is packed with smaller waterfalls that all lead to a stunning 40-foot cascade that stems from atop a daunting cliff. Along the 2.5 miles to reach the last waterfall, you’ll be greeted with blooming flowers, vibrant green moss, and towering trees. This is a relaxing trail nestled in the forest canopy that is sure to make your top list of Appalachian Trail hikes.

New Hampshire’s Best 4,000-Footers

March 26, 2022

The state of New Hampshire has 48 4,000-foot mountains to climb. If you’re an avid climber, we definitely recommend trying to tackle them all at some point in your life, as they all provide absolutely stunning experiences. If that’s your thing, then investing in an NH 4,000 footer map can help you customize your climbs even further and commemorate each trip.
 
Of course, 48 climbs might not be the most realistic for every climber. So, next time you’re in the state, make sure to check out at least one of these.

Mount Washington
Mount Washington is the tallest and most famous of the New Hampshire 48. It isn’t the easiest climb, but it promises a spectacular view of the surrounding mountain ranges that you really will not want to miss. On a clear day, the views from the summit can extend far beyond New Hampshire — sometimes as far as 130 miles to Vermont, New York, Massachusetts, Maine, Quebec, and the Atlantic Ocean.

Mount Pierce
This is a great option for those hikers who are looking for spectacular views without so much strenuous physical activity involved. At the summit, you’ll have nearly 360-degree views, including Mount Washington’s southern aspect, the Ammonoosuc Ravine and the Cog Railway. The great part about Mount Pierce is the sheer number of paths to get to and from the top. Whether it’s your first time hiking the mountain or you’re a seasoned alum, you’ll surely still be surprised by all it has to offer.

Mount Carrigan
This 10-mile hike is well worth the time and effort it will take to get to the summit. Luckily, it’s only five miles in each direction — and the view from the top is sure to take your mind off the steps it took to get there. From the summit, you’ll have views of Mount Washington and the mighty Presidential Range, as well as the Pemigewasset Wilderness and Signal Ridge.

Mount Madison
Mount Madison is another of the more difficult hikes, though it is well worth the sweat for the stunning views that you’re going to get at the top. Despite being under eight miles round trip, this is a route that is rocky and rugged. It also gains roughly 3,500 feet in elevation. Once at the summit, the dramatic sightings of Mount Jefferson, Mount Adams, and Mount Washington will be undeniably magnificent.

Cannon Mountain
If a lower effort hike sounds like it's more in the cards for you, then try Cannon Mountain. This is a 4.4-mile round trip hike up the Hi-Cannon Trail, and it only gains around 2,000 feet throughout the course of the trip to the top. Once you reach the summit, you’ll have a great vantage point to spot the Franconia Ridge and, of course, will be able to spot the Presidentials as well. To the south, you will be able to see the Kinsmans. To the west, you’ll spot the Connecticut River and Vermont’s Green Mountains.

Gifts for Any Golf Lover

March 26, 2022

Do you have an avid golfer in your life? If you aren’t as familiar with the sport, it can be tricky to figure out what to get for the person you know who is always hitting the fairway. But, rest assured there are plenty of great easy and accessible presents you can consider for them. From golf course art to a subscription box, consider one of these next time you’re looking for that perfect gift for your special someone.

Golf Course Art
One of the more unique gifts you might consider for anyone who loves golf is a piece of art to commemorate their favorite courses. For example, you could commission a custom golf course map. The piece will beautifully depict the golf course layout and allow your loved one to have a piece of their favorite course wherever they choose, whether that’s their office, their bedroom, or anywhere else. Another piece of golf course art to consider might be a map of the top courses in your region, or in the entire country.

Golf Subscription Box
This is a great idea if you’re having trouble settling on one item. Maybe you aren’t quite sure what they’ve got or what they’ll use. Or, you just want to be able to give your loved one a variety of items without breaking the bank. In either case, find a subscription box! These boxes will be sent to the recipient on an ongoing basis (monthly, quarterly, etc) and will include a ton of items from clothing to equipment for them to use on their next golfing trip.

Refillable Golf Log
If you have a more sentimental or competitive golfer in your life, they might like to record their games to look back on — whether to improve their scores next time or just remember their games for old times sake. If so, then consider buying them a refillable golf log. This will allow them to track their games without ever running out of room — since the log is refillable.

A Golf Getaway
You might be looking for a more extravagant gift for your favorite golfer. In that case, you might consider investing in a golf getaway for them. Is there one course or destination that they’ve always talked about visiting? Maybe there is a local golf club that would provide the perfect staycation. No matter the circumstances, any golfer will surely appreciate a chance to step away and relax while getting in some rounds of golf.

Golf Tees
Golf tees are one of those things that any golfer is going to need. They can never have too many, because they are bound to have some break every once in a while. Golf tees make a great stocking stuffer or addition to any gift, and the recipient is definitely going to be thankful for the extras.

U.S Ski Resorts with the Best Golf Courses

March 26, 2022

One of the best parts about a ski resort is that, while the slopes are bound to be a great time, there are also generally a ton of other activities to partake in. So, whether you’re looking for a break from skiing, or the sport just isn’t your thing, there’s still always something to do. Did you know that some of the best golf resorts in the world are hosted at ski resorts?

That’s right, next time you’re pouring over a ski map for your next vacation, don’t rule out a tee time as well.

Telluride Ski & Golf Resort
Golfing at the Telluride Ski & Golf Resort feels like you’ve found a hidden treasure. As you’ll know by looking at any Colorado mountain map, Telluride is home to the highest concentration of 13,000 and 14,000-foot peaks in the United States — and you could be nestled right in between those peaks for your next 18 holes. Surrounded by fir and aspen forests, the Telluride Ski & Golf Resorts greenway shouldn’t be missed.

Spruce Peak Resort
Vermont is another beautiful, and often underrated, place to ski. Fortunately for the golfers, it is also a place to find some magnificent views for your next round. The course at Spruce Peak has been rated the number one course in all of Vermont, likely due to the spectacular sights of both Spruce Peak and Mt. Mansfield that will lie before you.

Sun Valley Resort
Any respectable U.S. golf course map is bound to include the Trail Creek Course at Sun Valley Resort, located in Idaho. The expansive property includes views of Bald Mountain, Dollar Mountain, the Pioneer Mountains, Angel’s Perch, and Devil’s Bedstead. Golfers are also sure to encounter a number of babbling streams, forest views, and more. There is a reason this course has been voted one of the best in North America.

Sugarloaf Golf Club
With 13 lifts, 162 runs, and a 2,820-foot vertical drop, any skier or golfer is bound to enjoy themselves in Carrabassett Valley, Maine. At Sugarloaf Golf Club, players can golf 18 holes that run along the Carrabassett River — known as the “string of pearls.” The course is demanding but rewarding for any golfer, and the views aren’t half bad either.

Big Sky Resort
The golf course at Big Sky Resort in Montana is Arnold Palmer’s first design, making it a course that any avid golfer would dream of conquering. This resort is quite luxurious, as is all of Big Sky, which means it's perfect if you’re looking for a more elevated getaway. The mountain village has stunning views from the fairway, from mountains and forests to valleys and lakes.

Best National Parks to Visit as a Family

March 26, 2022

Traveling with kids can be both daunting and rewarding. While finding the perfect destination might take a bit of extra care and consideration, you are bound to make some of the best memories once you do so. The U.S. National Parks are some of the best places to take the whole family, because the outdoor activities are endless. While you could literally just pick up a National Parks map and point to any random destination, there are a few that are even better suited for kids and families.

Next time you’re looking for a place to visit with the kids, consider one of these state parks.

The Grand Canyon
The Grand Canyon is located in Northern Arizona. This natural chasm in the early stretches 277 river miles in length. At certain points, it reaches up to 18 miles in width and a mile deep, according to the National Park Service. There are a ton of activities from camping to hiking to river expeditions, making it close to impossible for your family to not find the perfect activities. There is just so much to explore, which is one of the reasons that the Grand Canyon is the perfect destination for your kids with curious minds.

Yellowstone National Park
If you take a look at any Wyoming National Parks map, Yellowstone National Park is sure to stand out. It is one of six that are within the state, and it is surely the best one to plan a trip for the whole family. The park sits atop a volcano, making it a site filled with geothermal features, including geysers, hot springs, and more. It is a beautiful park with so much to explore, and your family is sure to spot a few bison roaming around as well.

Everglades National Park
While it isn’t as popular as some of the other spots on the U.S. National Parks Map, Everglades National Park is full of wildlife to explore. As one of the largest National Parks, the Everglades has several beautiful hiking trails, where you are sure to spot an alligator or two (or more!) as well as many birds, snakes, insects and more. If your kids love animals, this is the place to go. You can even finish your visit with an airboat ride, which is sure to be a thrilling addition to the trip.

Great Sand Dunes
Once again, this choice is something of an oddball. The Great Sand Dunes are quite different from many of the other national parks, and it is surely not what comes to mind when you think of a family vacation. But, you and your family are sure to have a blast sandboarding a sledding — and the sunsets and sunrises at the Great Sand Dunes cannot be missed. Next time you’re looking for a place to take the kids that’s maybe a bit more laid back and relaxing than some of the other national parks, make sure you consider the Great Sand Dunes.

New Hampshire 4,000-Footer Map: A Guide to New Hampshire’s 4,000 Footers

February 15, 2022

New Hampshire offers 48 mountains that reach 4,000 feet in elevation. Mount Washington is the tallest, exceeding 6,200 feet. Although most of the peaks are located in the White Mountains, you can find them in everything from the Carter Moriah Range to the Sandwich Range.

The White Mounts of NH make hiking 4,000 footers a fantastic experience. When you combine your journey with the memories of custom New Hampshire art, you’ll have something that reminds you of how much fun you had every time you see it.

If you’re looking for an NH 4,000-Footer to climb today, here are some of the best options to consider.

1. Mount Cabot
If you haven’t fallen in love with the woods of New Hampshire yet, a trip to this NH 4,000 footer will make that happen. It’s the most northern peak in the state, and you’ll likely spot at least one fellow adventurer on the trail out there. Even with the company, it feels like you’re out there in the middle of nowhere. Kilkenny Ridge is stunning.

2. Mount Waumbek
Although this 4,000-footer is one of the smallest in the state, the 2.6-mile trail is also one of the shorter treks you’ll take to reach the summit. If you include Mount Starr King, you can extend the trip to over seven miles. Only Cabot is further north.

3. Mount Lafayette
A winter trek up this 4,000-footer is one of the best experiences New Hampshire offers. You might not get much of a view in December when you reach the peak, but the joy comes in the challenge. Several trails go up 3,000 vertical feet to reach the exposed summit. If you take Garfield Ridge or Franconia Ridge, you’ll be hiking part of the Appalachian Trail.

4. Zealand Mountain
The northeast and southern sides of this mountain drain into the north fork of the Pemigewasset, with the waters eventually reaching the Gulf of Maine. The Twinway is the most popular trail to explore here, offering views of the Willey and Presidential Ranges. Don’t forget to stop to admire Zealand Falls during your adventure!

5. Mount Jackson
Although the blustery winds aren’t popular with everyone, this 4,000-footer is one of New Hampshire’s most popular peaks. It’s a 5.1-mile out-and-back trail where you’ll see beautiful wildflowers in season. Dogs are allowed if they’re kept on a leash. To minimize the difficulty, head out there between May and October for the best experience. Winter hikes in the White Mountains are fantastic here, but don’t forget to bring your spikes.

6. Cannon Mountain
When you want an entire vacation experience while hiking 4,000 footers, you won’t find better New England gifts than the resort community located here. Luxury lodging, ski packages, and a lift that runs throughout the year let you enjoy nature in whatever way you prefer. You can also hike to the summit and enjoy the views from the lookout tower.

NH 4000-footer wall art allows you to remember each trip while adding something beautiful to your home or office décor. Plan your trip today, and then treasure the memories with every tomorrow.

National Park Posters and Maps: Commemorate Your Visit to These Beautiful Destinations

February 15, 2022

With over 63 national parks to explore, the United States provides over 230 million recreational visits to global visitors annually. Some of the country’s most famous landmarks are found in these protected areas, ranging from the Grand Canyon to the stunning heights of Denali.

National park posters and maps provide a unique way to commemorate your visit to one of these incredible natural destinations. Here are some of the top protected areas to consider seeing when you get the itch to explore.

1. Yellowstone National Park
The first national park established in the United States is routinely rated as one of the best in the world. After its establishment in 1872, the numerous iconic features have become the subject of many national park maps and posters. From Old Faithful to the bison herds that roam all over the countryside, you’ll find incredible views awaiting your arrival.

2. Katmai National Park
When you think of rustic beauty, Alaska often tops the list of American destinations. During the spawning season, visiting this national park allows you to see numerous bears in the river, attempting to catch fish as they leap up the different natural features. It was established in 1918 to protect the Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes and surrounding Novarupta, and it now offers a preserve spanning four million acres of spectacular natural adventures.

3. Yosemite National Park
With nearly 1,200 square miles to see, the waterfalls are often the national park prints and posters you see from Yosemite. Although the area was first protected in 1864, it took three days of Teddy Roosevelt camping near Glacier Point to create a unified destination that included Mariposa Grove and the valley. A bill in 1906 finalized the idea, with several campgrounds completed by the end of the year in 1916.

4. Glacier National Park
More than 700 miles of hiking trails are available to explore at this national park, although one of the most popular trails is to visit Hidden Lake. You’ll find plenty of solitude in this wilderness, whether you prefer cycling, backpacking, or horseback riding. You can take Going-to-the-Sun Road for an incredible view of the region, although the drive closes during the winter months.

5. Zion National Park
This stunning national park in southwest Utah features gorgeous red cliffs that stretch to the sky. You can also take forest trails along the river that leads to a hanging garden and waterfalls. Permits are necessary for many canyoneering and backpacking activities.

6. Olympic National Park
From the quiet beauty of Lake Crescent to the roaring waves of the Pacific Ocean at Ruby Beach, you’ll find nearly every ecosystem available to explore when visiting this national park in Washington. The Hoh Rainforest is one of the most extensive temperate forests of its type in the United States, while Mount Olympus is a popular spot for backpacking, hiking, and climbing.

A national park push pin map is the perfect gift for hikers who love exploring these enchanting natural areas. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or looking for posters or maps as a gift for others, you’ll find that nature can be the inspiration for nearly any interior décor idea.

Golf Maps and Posters: Visit the Best Underrated Golf Courses to Reserve a Tee Time

February 15, 2022

Anyone can find a great experience when referencing a list of the top 100 greatest golf courses in the US or another country. You can search for the top public golf courses, the best 200 golf courses in the world, or spend your time pouring over golf maps to find a new favorite spot.

Several underrated golf courses are out there where reserving a tee time is affordable and fun. If you haven’t taken a swing at one of these excellent destinations, you should plan a trip this year.

1. Battlement Mesa Golf Club (Colorado)
This championship-style course opened in 1987. It’s been ranked by Golf Digest as one of the best you can play. It brings everything about the US West right to you, ranging from the high peaks in the background to the Colorado River below. With extensive bunkers, open fairways, and a few surprises to enjoy, you won’t mind putting in 18 at any time during the year.

2. Edelweiss Chalet Country Club (Wisconsin)
Although this golf course closes for the winter, it’s one of the best you’ll find in the state. Public play is available throughout the year, and you can even purchase a package rate to save up to 30% off your fees. With a few water hazards and bunkers on nearly every hole, you can choose to put in a quick nine or spend the afternoon hitting a complete round.

3. Discovery Bay Golf Club (Washington)
This golf course was established in 1925, leading the facility to claim it is the oldest public design still operating in the state. The greens are pretty challenging, with the back nine offering a wooded experience. Each hole is fair, but it is designed to be difficult for every level of golfer. There’s also a range and a putting green available to use. It’s the perfect inspiration for retro golf posters.

4. Twin Pines Golf Course (Iowa)
With generous fairways, a layout that’s easy to walk, and several hole lengths to consider, there’s something here for the entire family. It’s one of the fastest rounds in the state, especially with the multiple tee options provided. For about 30 years, the back nine was lighted for night golfing. It has continued to be a local favorite since the first round was played in 1962.

5. Applegate River Golf Club (Oregon)
Although it is only a 9-hole course, you’ll find superb views and well-maintained grounds awaiting your arrival. At 2,600 yards, it might be a bit short for some. It does give you short part 5s and drivable par 4s to create some risk-reward opportunities. There aren’t any bunkers, but the pond around the eighth hole creates a nice challenge.

When you have golf décor that commemorates your adventures at these underrated courses, you’ll get to keep reliving your best shots and experiences. Whether you’re looking for golf gifts for men or a custom golf course map of your favorite spot, being inspired by the best holes at these destinations is a gift that keeps on giving.

State Park Maps and Adventures: Best State Parks to Visit with an RV

February 15, 2022

For many, the dream of taking an extended trip with an RV has turned into a reality. With different travel vans and other vehicles making it comfortable to drive and camp without a ton of extra gear, the open road is calling.

Instead of visiting the 63 national parks (although that’s a great adventure!), consider stopping at some of the best state parks in the United States with your RV.

Over 6,600 state parks, covering 14 million acres, are out there to see.


The state parks of the USA deliver incredible experiences without having lots of people around. Breakout your pushpin map, find the places you’d like to go, and consider adding these stops along the way.

1. Huntington Beach State Park (South Carolina)
This stunning state park is famous for its Grand Strand beach, but it has lots to offer for those who want to linger. It’s one of the best spots in the country for birdwatching, offers some fantastic trails to follow, and you can even do some surf fishing. More than 180 campsites are available, with some offering full hookups.

2. Wilderness State Park (Michigan)
This Michigan state park includes 26 miles of shoreline on the Great Lakes. Although there are only 18 campsites with full hookups for RVs, you’ll discover lots of activities to enjoy when you can reserve a spot. It’s one of the few places in the upper Midwest where you can look up to see the stars in a dedicated dark sky preserve. More than 10,000 acres are available to explore, ensuring there is something for everyone to enjoy.

3. Cape Disappointment State Park (Washington)
When you visit this beautiful coastal state park in the West, you’ll be where the Columbia River comes to the Pacific Ocean. You can find freshwater lakes, old-growth forests, and old military bunkers to explore. A total of 68 full or partial hookup sites are available, including showers, bathrooms, and a dump station.

4. Mueller State Park (Colorado)
Although this 5,000-acre state park doesn’t get as much attention as some of the state’s other wonders, you’re in for a treat when you stop with your RV. With nearly 100 sites offering electric hookups, a fire ring, and a picnic table, you can enjoy the quiet freedom that nature provides here. Hawks, mule deer, and elk are seen frequently, along with the occasional black bear.

5. Split Rock Lighthouse State Park (Minnesota)
Lake Superior’s northern shoreline is the perfect backdrop for this Minnesota state park. Its open water, stunning cliffs, and historic lighthouses deliver an incredible experience for those on an RV road trip adventure. Although camping takes place outside the park’s boundaries, it’s a small price to pay when you see how many activities are available. You can go horseback riding, rent a boat, do some fishing, or hike along miles of beautiful trails.

State park wall art provides a fun option for RV décor as you track each adventure. Pack some supplies, break out your map, and start exploring!

Colorado 14ers: CO’s Best Fourteeners to Climb

February 12, 2022

What mountain comes to mind first when you think of the Colorado high peaks? For many people, the answer is Pike’s Peak, which is near Colorado Springs.

With 58 peaks of Colorado exceeding 14,000 feet, you’ll find a 14er out there to hike that meets your difficulty expectations. Some are remarkably easy, while others are exceptionally challenging.

Each trail allows you to explore the rugged beauty of the Rockies, the San Juans, and more while enjoying the wildlife and scenery.

With pushpin maps or a Colorado 14er poster to remember each adventure available, you can customize each trip up a fourteener in numerous ways. Here are the hikes to try when you’re spending time in the state this year.

1. Mount Elbert
This hike takes you to the tallest summit in Colorado. If you take the Northeast Ridge route, you won’t need technical skills to complete the ascent. With proper planning and some fitness, you can enjoy a long day outside in the fresh air. Get started early (before 6 AM) to avoid getting caught in an afternoon storm. Three false summits are out there, so make sure you follow the trail to the end.

2. Mount Evans
You’ll find six 14ers along the Front Range to climb. This summit is less than two hours from Denver, and it’s only 2.4 miles up to the top. If you don’t have the time to traverse the entire mountain, you can drive most of the way to the top. Most people take the No. 51 trail because you’ll summit Mt. Spalding’s 13,842 feet along the way.

3. Mount Sneffels
The San Juan Mountains deliver some of the best wildflower trails in the state, especially in the middle of the Summer. If you climb this 14er, you’ll find the lower trailhead is already at 11,300 feet. You’re also close to Ouray, which is one of the state’s old mining towns. Since it’s a Class 3 trail, you’ll need some gear for exposed scrambling. The snow stays until early June most years, but the reward is a view that stretches all the way to Canyonlands State Park in Utah.

4. Longs Peak
It’s only 90 minutes from Denver, located in Rocky Mountain National Park. The journey is difficult, requiring between 10 to 15 hours to complete the round trip while being at altitude. Bring your helmet and gear for the last part of the trail, where you’ll need to climb steep granite. If you want to turn this trek into a weekend adventure, reserve a site at Boulder Field, located about two miles from the summit.

5. The DeCaliBron Hike
When you take on this adventure, you’ll have four 14ers to remember from your trip to Colorado. This 7-mile loop includes Mounts Democrat, Cameron, Lincoln, and Bross. Although the route isn’t overly technical, you will feel the altitude when spending all day above 13,000 feet. Bring plenty of water and hope for a clear day because you can see the Elk Mountains with the skies cooperate.

Climbing a Colorado 14er with family, friends, or by yourself can be a fantastic experience. When you commemorate it with CO mountains wall art or another memory souvenir, you can think back to these times whenever you want!

America's Hidden Gems!

October 02, 2019

Let's talk about America and some of its hidden gems. 

Most underrated cities can become more than just another city to visit... it can become an adventure of a lifetime! Of course, there are too many to list here and we thought that the following 4 cities stood out more than others and they could go on your 2020 bucket list! Let us know what you think.

1.Milwaukee, Wisconsin

If you like beer you have to try this place out. 

Just an hour-and-a-half north of Chicago on Lake Michigan, the city is best known for its old-school beer scene. It’s the home of Miller and you can still take a tour of the old brewery. (I don’t know about you, but beer is one of my best friends). It is pure kitsch meets day-drinking, so this is always a good idea!

The food is also one for the books as Milwaukee’s food scene is stellar. Imagine a mix of migrant-American fare combined with European comfort foods and a deep love of locally-grown and seasonal treats.

NOW DOESN’T THAT SOUND GOOD?!

2. Seattle, Washington

Beautiful Seattle kind of has it all, it's beautiful, alive and so full of stunning scenery. It’s a bounty for nature lovers (so if you are a nature lover like me, then go go go, it's amazing ) — with access to National parks, inland seas, lakes, wilderness, and Alpine mountains. There is just so much beauty to see. 

Also, it’s a music lover’s paradise with some of the best venues for rock in the country. Then there’s the wine. (You know that was coming!). It’s hard to beat Seattle when it comes to wine, thanks to the heavy agriculture on the eastern side of the state and the Pacific Ocean to the west. 

3. Kansas City, Missouri

Kansas City is a big city with a small-town feel. It’s also cheap enough to hook you into staying awhile. The bar, baseball, and meat-centric food scene all deserve a look. There’s a great burgeoning street art scene and… did I  mention it’s inexpensive?

There is one spot you can not miss and that is Arthur Bryant’s Barbeque, according to my meat-loving friends. Kansas City barbecue it all about low-and-slow with a lot of smoke. The meat is rubbed with a dry mix of salts and spices and then served with a tomato-based barbecue sauce that’s usually tangy, sweet, and spicy.

4.Savannah, Georgia

Do you feel like going on a time travel with me? Well, Savannah feels like a place from a different time. The humidity in the air, the Spanish moss billowing in the breeze, and the surrounding marshy flats leading to the ocean are a transformative corner of America. There’s a beauty to the place — both cultural and natural — that draws you in and tempts you. It's a place you will never regret going too.
