Sure would have been easier if she were going to MIT! My bucket list trip is to see fall foliage but her soccer games will run through the end of October; I'll have to do some "creative planning"

to work something out before we get to old to travel!

I would LOVE to see the mountains too but am a huge fan of lighthouses! The water is warmer in the Gulf of Mexico but you have to go WAY down south to South Padre Island to get the really pretty beaches...7-8 hour drive!

David and I flew down once for our anniversary and that was MUCH better than that long drive. It was still an hours drive to the South Padre beaches but much better than that LONG, boring drive! Port Aransas/Corpus area has pretty beaches and they're a lot closer; that's why Allie was excited to discover her dorm room mate is from Corpus! They're nice but still not as pretty as South Padre!

No Ma'am, not from TSL.
