We packed up from our beach house and headed out. First stop was a really yummy farm to table breakfast place. Because Virginia Beach is the proud home of the original waffle cone (invented at the St. Louis World’d Fair by a guy who was from Norfolk), we decided that dessert after breakfast seemed like…

Our last lazy day in Virginia Beach. Not too much to report. Evie, Shea, and Jill spent the day at the beach again. Violet and Allie just hung out. We had a rainy afternoon, so there was a lot of lounging. I promised the girls that if we economized on 2 meals, we could splurge…

We had an easy, lazy day today. Evie, Shea, and Jill went to the beach. Violet and Allie tried the beach for a bit, but mostly lazed around the house. We had a good stockpile of snacks and food from grocery shopping last night, so the kids just came and went and grazed. I let…

We woke up in Rehoboth Beach. Violet and Allie hit the outlets while Evie, Shea, and Jillian went to the beach. I scooped them all up on our way out of town. But first, lunch at the Purple Parrot. Then, bye Delaware! Evie REALLY wanted to shop at a Ron Jon store, so we made…

We woke up to GOATS! Shea said they were goats and we were GOATs. 🙂 We arrived so late that it was too dark to see them. We knew there were animals at the farm, but not that they were right outside our door! Lucky for us, there was a terrific little breakfast place in…

We woke up in our Airbnb in Angelica, NY to find some baby birds on our porch! After packing up quickly, we had breakfast at a cute coffee shop a couple doors down, which was attached to a sweet little antique shop. We took turns shopping while our food was being made. After breakfast, Pennsylvania!…

We didn’t make it far our first day, but we started! Our first stop was at Town Line, NY. The town’s claim to fame is that is joined the Confederacy and seceded from the union during the Civil War. After the war, it chugged along for decades, never officially being part of the US (though,…

We’re having a friendly travel competition during the trip. The girls can earn points doing various things as we go along our way. Prizes awarded based on 1st place, 2nd place, etc. Track their progress here! 🙂 Here are the rules: Take a roadside attraction selfie = 1pt, share it on the blog 4 extra…
