    In Virginia’s own Shangri-La within the Blue Ridge we marveled at the picturesque landscapes, endless forests, and absence of traffic lights.

  • Arlington County

    We left the dogs at home to visit Arlington National Cemetery, but made it up to them later with a grand tour of Arlington’s dog friendly spots.

  • Amherst County

    Don’t make my mistake when you visit Amherst County. Bring your kayak! The good news: we saw 2 waterfalls, hiked portions of the Appalachian Trail and James River Heritage Trail, and visited the Monacan Indian Nation Museum. Added bonus: Mack and his brother Ron had a ball fishing the James River with guide Jeremy Cunningham.

  • Amelia County

    If you are a Civil War history buff, you know that Amelia Courthouse and Sailor’s Creek both played crucial roles at the end of the war. Close to the Courthouse, Amelia County’s Wildlife Management Area is a great place to fish, hike, bike and go kayaking. Plus, it’s free and dog friendly!

  • Alleghany County

Our weekend in Alleghany County consisted of one highlight after another. Seriously…a stunning waterfall, a cave, a historic covered bridge, the Jackson River, and a bike trail from my dreams!

  • Accomack County

    Accomack County

    With its beaches, wild ponies, and Virginia’s only launch site, Chincoteague Island is a hard act to follow. We biked, fished, hiked, and went kayaking. However, seeing an empty beach at the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge during the height of tourist season rates as a highlight of the trip.
