My daughter was accepted into the summer program at Jacob's Pillow in Western Massachusetts. I'm dropping her off for three weeks and with my wife and daughter on a trip, my first thought was I should just fly down to Orlando, but there are a few places I'd like to see in New England and I'm not sure when I'll get up that way again.
So here's my itinerary, which I'm either going to do right after I drop her off or before I pick her up, so something like 6 or 7 nights total). I want to go to Maine and see Acadia National Park and I've been a huge Stephen King fan for years, so I have to see Bangor (and they have a Stephen King tour there). Then I think I'd drive across the mountains in New Hampshire over to Vermont and go to the Ben and Jerry's Factory tour and Stowe. Then I'd like to see Fort Ticonderoga, then go to Lake Placid and see the Olympic sites, possibly do the bobsled run, then go to Alexandria Bay and do the Thousand Island boat tour right on the border of Canada. I think I'll have time to fit in a trip to Niagara Falls to do Maid of the Mist and then drive back and stop in Cooperstown for the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Does anyone have any other suggestions in that general area? I'm not planning to spend much time in Boston as I've been there fairly recently. I would like to see some of the covered bridges up in that area as well. Thanks!
