After a year of waiting, we start our first travels on Sunday.

6/21/2019

“And remember, also…that many places you would like to see are just off the map and many things you want to know are just out of sight or a little beyond your reach. But someday you’ll reach them all, for what you learn today…will help you discover all the wonderful secrets of tomorrow.”

--From The Phantom Tollbooth, a wonderful book I used to read with my fifth graders when I was teaching in Asheville.

And so Sunday we’re off to discover new things with a new group of boys. This will be the beginning of the 42nd summer of these trips.

We have two trips this summer. Our first is five days to the North Carolina High Country (area around Boone) June 23-27 and then in July we fly to Portland, Maine and begin a 12 day adventure in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont – July 14-25.

So it’s a bit late to sign up for this summer, but we want you to know sign-ups are open now for our 2020 season. We’ll be having just one trip – but’s a doozy and we’re to the place where we’ve been more than any other: Wyoming & Montana. Info can be found, along with the application, at:

A year ago today...and ten days from today

It was a year ago today that we were in London near the beginning of our 20-day adventure that would take us by train to some of Europe’s most iconic sites. About the time of this post we were finishing up our walking tour with our guide and finding our way to the West End to see a production of “School of Rock, The Musical.” Kids loved it and the show made for a nice end to the London portion of our trip. By mid-morning the next day we were traveling by Eurostar to Paris.

Our new season of adventures gets underway ten days from today with a five-day trip to the North Carolina High Country. We will pack in an amazing number and variety of activities in this short experience. In July we’ll be in New England for 12 days. And for sure, just like last year’s Europe and Virginia Highlands trips, no day is ever the same.

We hope you’ll follow our travels here on Facebook as we get underway.

And if you’re curious about 2020, we’re heading out to Wyoming & Montana for ten days in July. Sign-ups have started and you can read more here: http://www.mindstretchadventures.com/2020-wyoming--montana.html
