I've never taken a vacation, and I'm determined to take on this year in Spring. I'm in Pittsburgh area and would like to bring my dog along (he is too anxious for boarding or a dog sitter), and don't want to put him on an airplane. Any ideas?

The best I've been able to come up with is renting a small island with a cottage on the Great Lakes. My pup could run totally free on the island for a week and live his best life chasing squirrels and swimming. I'm not much of a nature fan, though, so it might be a bit boring.

Speaking of the Great Lakes, come check out Ludington when you get the chance! Beautiful country, relaxing days, plenty of touristy stuff to check aside from nature, and the Sleeping Bear Dunes are all worth it! https://www.sleepingbeardunes.com/ I’d recommend checking out the Porcupine Mountains, but that’s waaaay too much of a drive for the pupper 🙈 https://theporcupinemountains.com/porcupine-mountains/
