The Traveling Roths on Tour

The Vortex, Little Five Points, Atlanta

The summer is a busy time for the Traveling Roths, mainly because 75% of us have the summer off.  So when you have that much time to get away and see the world, you make the most of it.  So here's how we're making the most of our Summer Vacation.

June:

Georgia

     We all got to spend a few days in our old homeland, catching up with old friends, visiting some of or old favorite places, and finding some new ones.  Some highlights (in a tag cloud-style) include: Blue Ridge Brewing, Historic West End, Canon Mitchell , Einstein Bros., Buckhead, Richard's Variety , Piedmont Park, Cafe Intermezzo, No Mas Cantina, Mia Morris,  Gavin Holmes, Taqueria del Sol, Peachtree City, Dave and Michelle Wenegar, Little Five Points , Donna Holt, Taqueria del Sol (again), Starlight Six Drive-In, U-Haul, Shelton Fireworks

Virginia
      Jennifer and the kids got to spend a few days in Culpeper, Virginia with Jennifer's cousin Jeanine and her two kids.  From there it was up to Pennsylvania, and this is where it gets complicated.  Jennifer and Zoe left to see some friends and family while Tristan and Opa headed to Maryland on their way to Virginia and the start of Tristan's summer tour with the North Carolina Boys Choir.

North Carolina Boys Choir National Tour Series

     Tristan and the rest of the NCBC are on their national tour this week, and if you're lucky enough to be anywhere near where they are, stop and catch a show.  They're free, open to the public, and best of all, they are chock-full of musical excellence.  You should follow their travel blog every day.

July
    We (all) plan on starting the month out up in Maryland with the extended Roth family, and then back to North Carolina for a few days to regroup before heading off for to California.  That's the "big" trip of the summer, and we're all really looking forward to it.  We're also planning another trip to Georgia to participate in a Match Game-themed 40th Birthday Party.

August
     For the first time ever, we're taking a trip with our Southside Swingers group up to Ohio, to hang out with our friends at their cottage on the lake, and finally make the pilgrimage to Cedar Point where at least two of us will really enjoy the roller coasters and other rides.

And then there's the beach.  Definitely need to get back to the beautiful beaches of North Carolina.


So check back here and see what we're up to.
