Before southwest we drove down all the time with four boys (we only own 3 of them but for some reason there was always some extra kid with us) and yes a dvd player is a great help, along with leaving at night when they will be sleeping most of the trip and making lots of short but very much sanity-saving stops.

I also would buy surprises for the kids that i would dish out during our tirp; small lego sets, coloring books, puzzle books any inexpensive toy/activity that they could do in the car. and if the kids are missing school - dont forget getting that homework done so yu dont have to do it in florida.

I used to drive to WDW as a kid with my parents and 3 siblings---WOW, I don't miss that!!!

Hey Michelle,

Too funny...we used to drive from Taunton as kids too. I still drive every year, just from Peabody now. I have a lot of family still living in Taunton.

I'm from danvers and grew up in beverly. Lots of you from western mass. It is so beautiful out there. My db and dsil live in northampton now. My son was thrilled to find out that is where the teenage mutant ninja turtles were born. We went last summer to a place out there called the potholes- all these natural made potholes in the rock from the glaciers. It was beautiful, but I can't remember the name of the town. I'll remember once I submit this reply.

Hi neighbor vanillarum. I think we met on another one of these threads.

That would be Shelburne Falls...about 5 minutes from my house! The potholes are right next to a great little candle company called Mole Hollow Candles. Not as big as Yankee Candle, but that's how they want it. Next time your in town, say "Hey!"

Yay! Another representative from the "hampton" area. I'm from the Northampton area. I'll be at UMass Amherst next year as a graduate student....should be fun!! Nice to see so many Massachusettsians on the boards!

 

[Gubblebum]

We're in Ipswich. I do love it here, especially in the summer, but right about now I'm counting down the days until we can leave the snow for Orlando!

Did you go to Triton? I did ('85 - from Salisbury).
I have good friends that are lifelong Rowley residents.
