One of the ways I try to stay busy as a private pilot is by making lists of places I would like to visit that are reasonably accessible through general aviation. To help keep things organized I group my prospective trips based on themes, as some readers might already know.
Sometimes appropriate themes are frustratingly difficult to find because a category that seems promising might turn out to be too specific or obscure. This week, however, with the July 4th holiday coming up, finding destinations tied to Revolutionary War history and independence clearly is the right path. The good news is that there are plenty of candidates for the wish list. As usual, the most difficult task will be budgeting time for the planned trips.
