Every year millions of people take to the skies, ships, trains, and cars to take the yearly family vacation. A lot of them just can hardly wait to cross the water and visit some distant land to see all the sights and sounds.
It is interesting to see how other cultures live. Trying to understand their customs and beliefs. It’s exciting to see the sights of another country, but there is still a lot to see in the U.S.
Have you seen the City beneath a City or crossed the floating bridge in Washington? Have you visited the Sea Lion Caves on the coast of Oregon or the Sanctuary of our sorrowful Mother in Portland?
How about the wine country in California or even Disneyland? And don’t forget the sights of Mt. Shasta. And don’t forget the deserts, mountains and resorts of Arizona.
There are a lot of exciting places left to be discovered and visited right there in the good old U.S.A. So start planning your next vacation to see more of those wonderful places and enjoy some of the rich histories of every state. History like the discovery of gold at Sutters Mill. History of outlaws of the west. Travel the same paths as the Earp brothers and the Clanton gang.
Visit some of the locations of the great train robberies and stagecoach hold-ups. The museums in each state are filled with artefacts of days gone by.
Plan a visit to places like New Mexico to satisfy the little cowboy hidden inside you. Ride on over to Arizona and hit Old Tucson and Goldfield. You might also make a stop at Old San Diego and then Old Town San Francisco.
I have seen the sights in many different places and enjoyed it all but I still have not seen all there is to see right here. One can travel the highways and byways and never run out of excitement.
Money is tight and so are the regulations of the airlines. U.S. travel is less expensive and you are free to make a few side trips any time and anywhere you feel.
Check it out on the Internet and find your next family vacation destination. See what kind of history you can discover.
