Between Portsmouth And London Is England's Ethereal Arboretum With Scenic Wetlands, Trails, And Lake Views - Islands (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Beyond the museums of London and the dockyards of Portsmouth, there is a side of England that feels a bit more like entering a magical wilderness. Head to the Surrey Hills between the two cities, and you can alight at Winkworth Arboretum, where the houses and high rises recede from view. In their place, footpaths wind along the water under a canopy of thousands of protected trees. A bit different from a botanical garden where trees are merely a backdrop, Winkworth Arboretum's main attraction is
Be Cautious Road-Tripping Through The State Where Drivers Are Most Likely To Hit An Animal - Islands (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Road-trip planning will have you focused on the fun stuff — which scenic routes are worth extra miles, where to pull over for a lookout. But knowing where you'll need to be especially cautious behind the wheel is just as useful to avoid collisions, particularly when driving through countryside where an animal might dart in front of you.

Under An Hour From Toledo Is Ohio's Scenic State Park With Presidential History, Trails, And Fairytale Views - Islands (opens the original)

But the parks that will stick with you the most have something beyond attractive scenery: a tie to a famed battle or historical figure, perhaps, that gives its setting another layer of meaning. At Ohio's Spiegel Grove State Park, that figure is the 19th U.S. president, Rutherford B. Hayes. Hayes' home, grave, and presidential library are all preserved with
This US State's Slang Is The Hardest In America To Understand - Islands (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Don't glob around, put your larrigans on so we can go tipping downeast. Did you catch that? If not, you're hardly the only person who's stumped by Maine slang. While every state has its own collection of expressions that make sense to locals but leaves out-of-towners at a loss, Maine was found to have the most difficult slang to understand, according to a Preply study. Travelers exploring Maine's rugged coast may encounter local slang unlike anything they've heard before. That's part of what mak
