Is there any other part of the US where one can drive through so many states in one day (ME, NH, VT, MA, RI, CT, NY, NJ) ?
Native New Englanders are a little odd though.  They have garages but don't partk their cars in them, they never vacation farther than Cape Cod, and customer service is not in the vocabulary.
ETA: Auburndale is near Newton, MA, right? | I am a native New Englander and totally agree with this first paragraph. We do use our garage for the cars though (I can't figure out why people don't use them either) . We have ventured out further than the cape. We have taken the kids to Fl.twice,driven cross country to Yellowstone, DC,PA ,Canada.But every fall they asked to go to the White Mountains of NH. So much to do. Santas Village, Storyland, Clarks Traiding Post,and much more.All while enjoying the fall colors. Now that the kids are grown DH and I have gone to Las Vegas and CA and are planning more trips.
