Please note that while these are still great places to visit, a lot of the links may be broken and some places may no longer exist. I'm going to clean this up and add some more recent trips as soon as I have time.
Vacation DestinationsMarietta, OH (2004)We went back to Ohio in 2004 for another tour of Marietta, Wooster, and the Amish country. For as much as we saw, there was easily as much we did not have time for. More >> Cleveland, OH (2002)We had a great vacation in Cleveland, Ohio, in August 2002. As it is fairly close to Buffalo, it is not only a potential spot for your next vacation, it's also great for a weekend getaway! More >> York, PA (2001)In July of 2001, we had a great vacation in Pennsylvania, visiting Hershey, Gettysburg, and Lancaster. It was a great combination of historical and cultural sights, shopping, and fun. More >> Dearborn, MI (2000)Our trip in 2000 to this Detroit suburb was one of our favorites. The Henry Ford Museum alone is worth the trip, but don't miss Greenfield Village and the Detroit Zoo! More >> |
Day TripsCorning, NYAlmost every October, we spend a long weekend in Corning, which is a fabulous place to visit (especially in the Fall); I think the Finger Lakes region is one of the nices places on Earth. More >> Ridge Road StationIf you want to take a day trip that is about an hour and 15 minutes each way from Williamsville, and which combines: Unique local architecture and history; A really neat store that features Christmas ornaments, an incredible train layout, and more toys and hobby items than you can believe; and a fine meal to top it all off, then a drive up north to Ridge Road Station and the Cobblestone District is just for you! More >> The Town of Wilson, NYWe spent a very pleasant Sunday in the Town of Wilson, a place I highly recommend for fishing, boating, casual sightseeing, and just plain relaxing. The highlight for me was actually catching a fish; Here's a picture of me with "Old Fighter", the legend of the southern Lake Ontario shore! A Nice Fall DayI wrote a small article in the fall of 2001 about some fun things to do on a nice fall day. More >> Welland, OntarioA nice day trip can be found in Canada, in the Welland and Niagara-On-The-Lake regions; If you have time, go to Old Port Dalhousie; it's worth the trip just by itself, with its many shops and restaurants, and nice, clean beaches!More >> |
