Where should we go?
I am a single mother with a 15 year old boy. We want to go away for a long weekend in August. (We live in the northeast) We do not want to go to the Hamptons or the Berkshires. Where should we research?

If your 15 year old is like other 15 year olds you want to plan something for both of you. How about Philadelphia? It's easy to get around, interesting kid friendly museums like the Franklin Institute and Academy of Natural Sciences. Then for entertainment you could go to a baseball game, either major or minor league and then take him to Dave & Busters on the waterfront where he could play video games to his heart's content.

So much depends on his interests. If I were to ask my 15 year old son, I'm sure his dream vacation would be staying home, going to Mets games everyday and eating a lot of Italian food. I suppose he wouldn't complain if an amusement or water park was thrown in there.
On the other hand, my idea would be a 'city' weekend (Boston, DC, etc), or maybe a beach trip (Wildwood Crest or something like that) with the beach having the edge just because of the August heat.
