Newburyport

Easy to find, easy to park with excellent shopping and walking and hanging out opportunities. You won’t be surprised to find a small festival happening and it is just a short trip over the causeway to Plum Island if you want long sandy stretches of beach and lovely swimming.

This is where my mother was born and raised. My Uncle Bob lives on High Street. My Uncle Joe lives on Plum Island (right across the Merrimack River). I love this town. Do yourself a favor and visit a true slice of the original Northeast.
