1. Fall is an explosion of orange and yellow...
2. ...and a short period between extreme heat and cold where you do as much as you can outdoors.
3. The coastline at the farthest tip of New England is rugged...
4. ...and this is the ideal way to explore it.
5. The coastal serenity is occasionally disrupted by angry Nor'easters.
6. Deeper inland, you find serene forests...
7. ...glassy ponds...
8. ...and hills spotted with farms.
9. Trains are the preferred mode of transportation.
10. They carry you from the country and drop you in the heart of the cities.
11. The cities don't sleep, but they do slow down a little at night.
12. They have their own urban wildlife...
13. ...and contain artifacts from the earliest days of American history.
14. The winters in the Northeast are brutal, but beautiful...
15. ...especially when enjoyed from the confines of a warm living room.
16. And no matter how cold the winters get, your daydreams about the next summer day at the shore keep you going.
