Getaways to Love
It’s Romance Awareness Month, a chance to slip away with your sweetie and have some much-deserved couple time. Here are three small U.S. towns where you can find actitivies to enjoy together. A quick trip to the West Coast brings you to the gateway to magnificent redwoods — Eureka, California. The seat of Humboldt County, Eureka has a long Indigenous history and ultimately became a major player as a lumber producer and a path for gold miners.
They’ve Got the Beat
Drumroll please! May is International Drum Month, and in honor of the percussionists out there (and all of us who bang on our dashboards, desktops and any other flat surface), we present three places (other than Scottsdale’s marvelous Musical Instrument Museum) where the beat goes on. The American Drum Company (ADC) in Seekonk, Massachusetts, is like that cool high school buddy’s basement where there are not only instruments set up to play, but you can also get lessons and hone your chops.
Into the Wonder
Craighead Caverns in Tennessee, between Sweetwater and Madison, would be fascinating if only for the history of how they’ve been used. A gathering place for the Cherokee, a saltpeter mine for the confederacy, and even a mushroom farm — it has been many things for a variety of people. It even was the location of a major fossil find: the bones of a Pleistocene jaguar.
