Hey Doug,
Yea, I think I could live there too. We took my 7 yr old grand daughter on a trip out east the last couple of weeks in July 2006. Went to the Hershey chocolate factory in PA, then on to the Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island, then out to the end of Long Island. We took a ferry over to New London CT, and through RI and on to Cape Cod, MA. Went on a whale watch cruise, and then did some geneology research in Watertown, MA. From there we went on to Mt. Washington in NH , stopped in VT at the Ben & Jerry ice crean factory. We then took a ferry across Lake Champlain and on to Lake Placid, NY (absolutely beautiful). We ended up going north out of NY into Canada and then west through Toronto, and back into Michigan at Port Huron, and then home to Grand Rapids. It took 10 days and was a trip of a life time!
Here's a couple of my favorite pics from the trip:
Pic 1: Ellis Island
Pic 2: Liberty Island, from Ellis Island
Pic 3: Statue of Liberty - taken from right underneath
Pic 4: Very lucky shot of a Humpback Whale breaching off Cape Cod
