There’s no place as cozy as autumn in New England. For the next few months it’s all about crisp leaves, comfy sweaters, dark nail polish, lattes, and pulling out my UGGs. (Yes…I’m aware of how ugly they are, but is there anything more comfortable?) It’s the perfect time to slow down, unwind from out fast-paced summer, and enjoy the simple things.

Product Roundup: July
Over the last few weeks, we’ve had the opportunity to try out so many great products while in self-isolation. I’d love to share with you some of our favorite things that we think travelers will love! Take a peek…
Enjoy!
3Doodler Pen
WHY TRAVELERS WILL LOVE THESE PENS
Creativity is something I try to encourage in my kids. In fact, this summer they have written “Do something creative” on their daily To Do lists. This kit is compact enough that kids can bring with them as they travel. It is great for any ability and age level. We were given two pens. The first was the 3Doodler Start “Learn from Home” pen set. I love that it doesn’t have any external hot spots so it’s perfect for ages 6-13.
It also came with 200 additional strands of 3Doodler Start plastic refills.
The second pen we got was the 3Doodler Create “Learn from Home” pen set.
This set is perfect for ages 14+

Renting a Lake House During COVID-19
10 Things to Look for When Renting a Lake House
After so many months of self-isolation, many people are hoping to salvage some sort of normalcy and go on a summer vacation with their family. Many people are not crazy about the idea of going to a hotel and being surrounded by other people. So what could be the solution? A lake house! Are people renting lake houses? Absolutely! We own a rental property on a lake and we were worried that everyone would cancel their reservations for this summer. Not only has no one canceled, but we even have 6 families on a wait list. It’s a great alternative to a hotel because you have your own space and don’t have to worry about being in contact with people other than your family. If you are looking to rent a lake house, there are some things you need to consider. I wrote this article a few summers ago and have updated it with specific tips about COVID-19.
LOCATION
Location can make or break a trip. There are lots of things to consider. Is the house on a quiet bay or on a channel where boats will constantly be going by? Is it lakefront, lake view, or away from the water but with lake access? It’s also good to know a little about the lake itself. Is the house located near a sandbar that’s know for it’s crowds? You may want to ask how close the neighbors are.
