Lakes

Our family has been to all five Great Lakes. We achieved this goal last summer. I am not going to write about this.

Lake Champlain was one of the first big lakes we visited. We were in Vermont to see the fall colors. We spent a beautiful evening on its shore in Burlington, Vermont. Ben and Jerry Factory was one of the places we visited on that trip. The trip gave us the credit of visiting all six New England states.

I was searching for my Lake George pictures. That is when I found a scrapbook I had started with my special boy.  We had pictures of Lake George tucked inside an album, and he wrote, New York, capital, Albany. Lake George is an hour’s drive from Albany. My boy knows all the state capitals. He memorized his states and capitals when he was eight. I wanted him to do a journal with the states and capitals he had visited, and it has just a few states in it. I plan to continue this project. His handwriting has also improved since then. 

This is how I learnt USA with my special boy
His first travel journal

Lake Tahoe is the dream destination for many. A trip I made with my parents. A memory for life. I am just going to add pictures for the same.

Lake Arthur is close to home. It is not a big lake, but we love it.

Being near water is therapeutic. So if you are near a water source, consider yourself lucky.

Week two of the challenge comes to an end. Sunday is an off day. So “M” will be posted on Monday.

  1. Wonderful memories. Very impressive you’ve been to all the Great Lakes, too! I like the map, how it shows the state motto, too. 🙂

    1. Oh we didn’t learn the motto! Just the states and capitals. We should have done that 😊!
