Road trips

A great option in New Jersey to consider when taking a road trip

One factor New Jersey can't change is its size, and other, smaller Northeast states suffered a similar fate in WalletHub's rating system.

There are plenty of ways to go on a culinary road trip through the Garden State on a nice weekend afternoon. There are lots of wine trails and food truck festivals, but here's one that will have you waddling back home with a fully belly at the end of the day - The New Jersey Donut Trail.

We're not quite there yet, but as summer makes the transition to autumn next week, the fall colors aren't really all that far away.

I love to travel. As I write this, I'm on the cusp of heading off to Toronto for a week. While Ocean County is a choice destination for a lot of people, every now and then we want to get out of town, too.

I can't begin to tell you how great it was to get away from strip malls, traffic, light pollution, and constantly being connected for a week.

About a month ago, I asked for your suggestions for the perfect summer getaway. Well, I seem to have found the perfect place and I am counting down the hours until I hit the road for my much needed break.

One of the things about living at a pretty major vacation destination is that we don't talk all that often about where we like to go to get away.

Beautiful spring days like today make me think of one of my favorite things to do this time of year - taking road trips. But of course if you're going to hit the highway, you have to make sure your car is in tip top shape.

I haven't been on vacation since right around this time last year. So it's definitely time for a nice, long weekend. And what better way to take vacation than with a roadtrip?
