A quick slice of the late‑60s— 1968 Hilton Head Island in their own words. We want to tell you about a trip We took a year ago that took us into an area that my wife had been researching for some time Magazines began to be left open at my side of the table and up on my headboard And there was a kind of a concerted Education campaign for a place called Hilton Head Island And you know there still aren’t too many people who know where it is when the topic comes up people say Where’s that Hilton Head Island is in South Carolina, but just off the coast of Georgia and It’s a fabulous spot. It seems to me for a family vacation be great for couples but we took all of our children and we did it during spring vacation which I think is the duriest time of the whole year here because it isn’t really spring yet and Everybody’s sort of sick and tired of winter So it’s a good time to get away and the weather at that time of year at Hilton Head just spectacular We flew from Chicago down to Atlanta You can then pick up another flight and fly from Atlanta to Savannah Georgia But since we had not driven across that part of the southeast from Atlanta to coastline We rented a Hertz car piled our suitcases right in at the airport and then with our roadmap took off We got down to Atlanta about nine o’clock in the morning We run away by about 9 30 and it took the better part of the day. Yes, the roads are not great I mean there are no super highways that leads you directly to Hilton Head So if you don’t want to drive across Georgia, you’d better just fly all the way to Savannah And then it’s I think 20 or 25 miles from there and though it is an island There’s a bridge out to it.

Here’s one from the stack—easygoing and chatty: 1968 In a pumpkin field at Wauconda Apple Orchard with Chris and Jeff (audio drops briefly in spots) 3 min in their own words. So if you’ve got a city type child as most of us have and you’ve never really planted a cornfield or a pumpkin field maybe one of these Sundays very soon now before Halloween you ought to get out into the country this is one of the places where and if you don’t pick your own apples this is a great project because you come in and you either your baskets or they sell you the baskets and then you take off and they show you where to park and they have the ladders and you go up into the trees and you pull all the apples you want and then you take them home and you feel so rich because all of a sudden you’ve got apples and squash and cider in the freezer and and taffy apples this is a ball it’s a good way to spend a Sunday think about it
This one drops you right into their day— 1968 Weekend in Wisconsin and Wulffs Island Inn in their own words. You know, where you can leave Chicago or this part of the country on a Friday afternoon and get where you’re going by supper time and bed down in a nice place and be assured that you’ll find one or two interesting spots for meals and maybe a little sightseeing along the way. And we came upon Wolf’s Island Inn. Well, when I was young, a teenager, we used to think it was great and exciting to go out to Wolf’s Island for dinner.

Well, I’d always like to go but I think this is especially a good time of year because the colors are better in Vermont than they are probably anywhere else in the country except maybe this or maybe Aspen, Colorado. Well all right let’s take a little trip to Vermont then and let’s think of a good spot to stay and maybe do a little vicarious upping and dowing through the good old Vermont hills.
