Looking for some help from the Pennsylvania and Virginia contingent.
The wife and I are celebrating our 40th anniversary this year. We typically stay close to home (Wisconsin) on our vacations but thought we'd knock off something on my bucket list. I've admired Washington and Jefferson lives and wanted to visit Mount Vernon and Monticello. I also want to include Gettysburg and DC.
Couple of questions. The first leg is 800 miles from my house to Gettysburg so I think we would stay somewhere between Cleveland and Pittsburgh and leave one whole day for the battlefield. Any suggestions for a nice town with reasonable accommodations?
Next would be DC and I am told to leave at least two days for the city. I am diabetic and walking long distances can be a real trial. I would prefer to leave my car outside the city and use "the Metro". Can I get on and off the bus? Again accommodation recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I suspect the best deal is outside the city of DC but where?
I figuring one day for Mount Vernon, Montpelier and Monticello. Is that reasonable?
The way back will include a family wedding in Indianapolis.
i will be on the lookout for tractors the whole trip and will report back on them.
If this works out next year I want to do Yellowstone or Glacier National Parks.
