MARTHA’S VINEYARD, NANTUCKET & CAPE COD
KEY WEST
Ever hear anyone talk about a Key
West sunset? It is actually one
of those “gotta see for yourself”
kinds of experiences. Famous
regulars to this unique city include
Ernest Hemingway, Tennessee
Williams, and most recently,
Jimmy Buffett. Come on! Let’s go
check it out.
The Island of Martha’s Vineyard is covered
with windswept moors, dense forests, and
dramatic coastal cliffs. Nantucket allures
folks with its tranquil sense of the faraway,
of a place that seems greatly removed
from almost anywhere. Cape Cod is filled
with 18th century houses with salt-spray
roses tumbling over fences, sand dunes,
cranberry bogs, and excellent seafood.

Sandwiched between our

Falls are two beautiful areas of

be in the Pennsylvania Amish
Country where the people live
today much as their ancestors
did. And on our return trip, we
will visit Ohio’s Amish Country
to experience more insight into
the lives of these special people.
A drive across Texas has the
slippery, shifting feel of a dream.
Things change, and change
significantly – from bayous
and forests to prairies to bare,
windswept plains. We will
experience this as our journey
takes us through Houston and
on to San Antonio. Pay attention
as you move across Texas and
experience its transformations.

BRANSON BOUND
NEW ENGLAND FALL FOLIAGE
Many people wonder how a tiny
town in a quiet corner of the
Midwest became a major center
of entertainment and tourism. If
you pay a visit to the Branson,
Missouri area, it starts to make
more sense. The mountains and
lakes of southwest Missouri are a
beautiful place to visit. Add bigname entertainment to this locale
and it’s not so surprising that the small town of Branson does big business.

tremendous changes in America.

Chicago-style: The adjective seems to attach itself
to everything in Chicago, Illinois – from vibrant
downtown Chicago architecture and political
machines to deep-dish pizza, hot dogs and blues
music. It’s no simple matter to precisely define

to any single style, even one that bears its name, is
what truly defines this city.
