It has already been a busy 2025 for us. We closed on our new house in early March. We spent most of March and April busy with contractors putting the finishing touches on the place. Then it was time to start cleaning up Dash and getting him ready for our summer adventure, as well as, stocking up on supplies.
This summer we are heading back to a few locations we have been before. We will get to see some friends and many of our family members. Our travels will take us to Northern Michigan, Maine, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware. Although we are revisiting some spots, there are plenty of new locations that we are looking forward to exploring.
Here is a snapshot of our travel plans.
Along the way, I’m excited to get a chance to go to several amusement parks. I love roller coasters and one of my favorite parks on our route is Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. I’ll be also be visiting some of the Six Flags parks and Kings Dominion in Virginia. It has been a while since I’ve been to theses parks, so it will be interesting to see how they have changed.
What is on the list for your summer plans? We would love to hear about them in the comments below!

Another new house? Do you get that bored that you need another engineering project??
Looks like you’re headed up/down I-75, you should stop at Kings Island just north of Cincy, great amusement park.
Looks like Dash will be rolling over a lot of miles this summer. Is he ready for retirement?
