A great way to learn about our presidents and other important political and historical figures and events in the U.S. is to study the places that memorialize them.

South Seas Island Resort – [...]

I saw that Sharon posted Dr. Beach’s Top Ten Beach list, and just to round out the pickings, I thought I’d post another top ten list (the 100 best everything list). So if you’re not a Dr. Beach follower, maybe you’ll prefer this list:
Panama City Beach, Florida
Hanauma Bay, Oahu, Hawaii
Kee Beach, Kauai, Hawaii
Kailua Beach, Oahu, [...]
