Hi Amanda I live in Ipswich, Massachusetts now. It is a town near the ocean and very family oriented. We have Crane's Beach which is a great place to spend a hot summer's day. Each year there is a sand castle contest held there and the sand sculptures are really beautiful. Another place of interest is Wolf Hollow. There you can see real live wolves living in a compound and learn about wolves - who are not dangerous to humans. We also have a local petting zoo where animals that have been used as pets and grew too big now have a place to live. My granddaughter loves to visit there. Our local apple orchards always have a day where you can pick your own apples and also take a hayride. Hope you get lots of email from all over the world.
