    This site sucks! There is no “next” that I’m able to click on. Total waste of time

    Very easy coast centric. Port Aransas Texas should have been on the list.

    I would like to visit Bar-harbor, Maine or any costal town along the northeast. I’m trying to figure a road trip from Pittsburgh to Maine around the end of August or middle of September. Would probably consider flying into Boston and rent a vehicle from there to travel up the coast.

    I have been to a couple places. Bar Harbor and Tybee Island. I went to Tybee Island as a day of rest working with the Massachusetts ANG> It was a great day and myself and another Airman saved a number of people when a thunderstorm rolled in. Got my first sea dollar there. Went to Bar Harbor as part of a Bermuda cruise we took for our 40th wedding anniversary. The food we ate was excellent. I ended up exploring on my own because my wife was not up to going up the hill right there. I did some exploring, saw some i9nteresting sights and stopped to have a Guiness beer in the closest bar to Ireland. All in all a good day.
