Seriously? I still haven’t posted about Boston??? If we didn’t have such amazing eats in Beantown, I may not have ever have gotten around to writing this one… Boston was the end city on our East Coast Roadie, with over 700 miles of driving. We saw some amazing sights and ate delicious food. We had … Continue reading »

Located on scenic Chuckanut Drive halfway between Vancouver and Seattle, this gem is the perfect stop on your way to Seattle, or if you are just looking … Continue reading »
