Virginia Guide to weekend escapes

by two past presidents of the Society of American Travel Writers*

Leave your alarm clock behind.  Don't tell your kids they're going to learn about history and America (even though they will).  Don't try to rush from attraction to attraction, destination to destination (no "boss" is around to clock you!). You're on vacation.

Download and print your personal "playbook" with just the chapters you want - just for fun!
