Doing some Staycationing this summer? Me too!
These are some of my favorite day trips - yes, everything includes food.
See below for a special summertime gift from me to you!
1 - Drive to Westport, MA and head to Horseneck Beach for some beach walking, book reading, and napping. The go up Main Road to the Dee Shatuck Gallery for some culture, and the Westport Winery to pick up some wonderful local wines and get a tour. End your day with dinner at The Bayside for sunset.

The ICA is right on the Harborwalk. Check out the latest exhibit then walk along the waterfront to the Harbor Boats. No matter how much time you have, there's a cruise for you. Bring a picnic dinner and have a meal during sunset.
We loved visiting Little Brewster Island. There's even a lighthouse keeper still living there. She'd love to see you!
