Looks like it is "bust" for the Buckeye family trip to Florida!
Husband's client screwed up the class they were supposed to take, so we won't be venturing down to Clearwater Beach for a week in the sun.
So, we decided to take a weekend trip in July to celebrate our first wedding anniversary instead. We were thinking of going to Annapolis, since it is a great, walkable place- but too expensive if you want to stay where you can walk! Maybe we will do that in late winter or early spring, when the inns have cheaper rates.
So, I looked out in the Blue Ridge Mountain area, focusing in on Charlottesville, VA. I figured we can hike if we want, go to vineyards, and go to Montpelier (James Madison's estate), or even just check out Charlottesville. We won't do Monticello, as we are doing that during the Williamsburg trip.
Again, everthing that isn't a Red Roof Inn or Super 8 motel is just crazy expensive! I finally found a very reasonable Bed and Breakfast in Waynesboro, VA (30+ minutes west of Charlottesville), where will we will- Tree Streets Inn. It puts us in a good locale, and I already found some dining- local, cheap joint- South River Grill and Wine Shop- for one night, and for the anniversary celebration- The Ivy Inn Restaurant in Charlottesville, which features locally raised food.
Hopefully, this won't bust on us!
