ReplyDeleteMy favorite summer getaway is Lake Michigan, only 40 minutes from my house so perfect for a quick day trip.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite places for a quick 3 day weekend getaway, are Medora, ND and the Deadwood/Hill City/Rapid City SD area. Neither one is fancy, but a nice place to get away. Medora is a little cowboy town, with the Medora Musical every night of the summer months, with the Badlands as the backdrop, and the Theodore Roosevelt National Park. And I love going down to the Rapid City area, it is full of history too, with Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, scenic drives, several quilt shops and wineries.
ReplyDeleteI just like to do local things like county fairs and farmer's markets.
ReplyDeleteThe beaches near my husband's family in SW MIchigan along Lake Michigan. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGreece!

I love the ocean. so we often go to the Oregon Coast to recharge!
ReplyDeleteWe go to a camp outside Bracebridge, Ontario in the Muskoka region. My husband started going there when he was about 10 and we have just continued going.
