I learned that Salem was the birth place of the National Guard. They had information on the Boston Tea Party, former Presidents, and the history of the area. It was a one of the cooler visitor centers I have been into and I enjoyed it evne though it was a quick stop.

Trolley rides to the Boott textile mill museum and Boarding House Park for some good music! So much! I've lived in greater Lowell my whole life and I still find out new stuff when I visit. One of our favorite things to do is to enjoy the walking tours that start here. Most Saturdays during the summer and several during the fall may 10am there are walking history tours where experts talk about different areas of the city or topics related to the city. Lowell played a huge part in the Industrial revolution and is now undergoing its own urban renewal these days. It's an exciting place to be. Park rangers are knowledgeable about the history of the area and all the things that make Lowell an amazing place. Free parking with a validated ticket. The actual visitors center is small, but there is lots to see and a gift shop, and it's the best place to start if you want to check out the rest of the urban park's stops.

A steady stream of international visitors came into the small building that was outfitted with all kinds of printed info. As the gateway to Cape Cod, Plymouth is a popular stop for many. Such a clean attractive historic town, it had instant appeal. I was even able to find free parking just up the hill in St. Peters parking lot. The church is a stately white with the tallest steeple in town. Easy to see.

Been stopping here on any trip west on rt 2 for decades now!…read more The gift shop has lots of nice local products from Massachusetts and New Hampshire. It has snacks and drinks to buy, most of those are local too. The fudge, cookies, coffee cakes and chocolate dipped Oreos are fantastic. There are no full meals or sandwiches though. Just goodies and cheese. They have all the visitor center brochures too. In the fall they will give you apples from their apple trees. When they are open you can use their composting toilets. The bathrooms are always clean and looked after. They have a special shorter commode for children and there are cute paintings on the wall. The bathrooms used to be open 24 hours unattended but I think the of epidemic and insurance liability probably put an end to that. When the main building is closed there are portapotties and a kiosk with vending machines. There is a fenced in pet exercise area and seating outside and some covered areas to sit. It's a solid highway stop. It would be great if it were open past 5, but it's a nice place to stop when it's open and at least has necessary things available when it's not.

We did not realize we were in the hear of apple country until we got here. There are many farms nearby that have apple stands. If you have the time, get the brochure and visit some. They had a basket of freshly pick macintosh apples to take and eat as a giveaway from a random farm. It was so fresh and delicious. We have lived in Colorado for nearly 50 years and we never get Macs out there. But I grew up in New England and Macs were my favorite. They just don't travel well so are not grown fro cross country shipping. Take one if you are here at the right season. Along with all the Johnny Appleseed lore, it make a great highway stop.
