Looking for US east coast travel suggestions!!
I'm planning a winter roadtrip from Boston, MA to Tampa, FL with and our senior chihuahua. We usually fly, but it's just about as expensive to fly with a dog as it is to drive in a hybrid and stay in economic hotels or airbnbs for a few nights. We're gonna roadtrip instead, take advantage of the unlimited PTO and explore up and down the east coast for a week.
It's roughly a 21-25 hour trip, initially we're thinking we will have 3 stops and stay in each for two nights, then we can alternate "driving days" with "exploring days". And if this goes well, we might make this trip a regular thing for our annual snowbird migration lol.
So open question to anyone and everyone: What scenic roads, towns, museums, restaurants, roadside attractions, etc. should I know about and try to visit
Thank you for any and all suggestions, advice, and boosts for visibility!!!
(We're open to literally everything, but especially partial to things related to , , , , friendly, friendly, and ofc good food)
Deeply honoured to have been featured on Season 7, Episode 9 of the 'LanaTheEducator' Podcast. This is part 1 of a 2-part interview. Enjoy!!

banning someone is not an effective punishment, because people rarely learn a lesson from it.
therefore, don't use it as a punishment.
instead, *do* use it as harm reduction. ban anyone who makes too much work for your volunteer moderators. if you feel bad, let them appeal. most won't.
Before you say you "have kids that age," consider what matters: what you feel about it, or what your kids feel about it So many parents are like "I have child at that age, therefore I get to decide what is important at that age.".

Understanding Dumbbell Front Raises
Mastering the principles behind the seated dumbbell front raise goes far beyond simply lifting a weight forward. It ensures youre actually training the muscle you intend to grow
Some advice for anyone who is staring out in technology: "It works for me", is the worst thing that you can possibly say.
If it isn't clear why, then consider the next time you are having a physical moment with a romantic partner and they express there is a problem, reply with, "it works for me": you will be 100% accurate and you will also demonstrate that you are 100% useless.
True, the person reaching out for help at that moment may be overlooking the obvious and at worst they may be a complete idiot, but if you own that solution then part of the job is to educate, work with, and learn a few things along the way. Dismissing someone with, "it works for me", pretty much abdicates all responsibility - you may find you're out of job before long and someone else with a different response assumes your role.
The World is full of fools and faint hearts and yet every one has courage enough to bear the misfortunes, and wisdom enough to manage the Affairs of his neighbour.
Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) American statesman, scientist, philosopher, aphorist
Poor Richard (1743 ed.)
