We have visited the Town of Murals more than once and one of the best restaurants in Lake Placid has to be Morty & Edna's Craft Kitchen. The Main Street complex in which they're located at one time played host to the local newspaper.
The Lake Placid Journal is gone and a shopping and...

Over our last few visits, we have found there are lots of things to do in Vero Beach. So, recently we decided to return. After no small amount of research, we decided again to stay at the Prestige Hotel. Although their ocean view rooms were a bit past our pricepoint, we were able to get a room...
