In mid-August, my parents and I (the other members of the fam are unavailable) will be flying to Maine and traveling through Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont for a week. We will be renting bikes and an SUV and doing 6 rails-to-trails bike trails in the various states that are about 20-25 miles each. I am so looking forward to it! I've always wanted to see Maine and at least one of the trails we are doing is along the coast, so it should be gorgeous!! I am hoping to eat my first lobster and go sailing while I'm up there, too. But I'm sure you'll be hearing more about this later and seeing pics, too. . .
If you or your family has any inclination to biking, you should find a rails-to-trails path and make a day of it. The paths are places that have been converted to bike trails from train tracks, so there is very little traffic and, because the railroad tracks could only withstand small grades, there are little to no hills. There are 22 of them in SC alone: Charleston, Greenville, Edgefield, Spartanburg, etc.
