We recently discovered an article from Reader's Digest that profiles 25 destinations within the United States that you can visit for free. And while this article might be from 2008 -- it notes gas prices at $4 per gallon (at least in our neck of the woods, it's closer to the low $2 range right now) -- its ideas are still applicable to today, this summer, or whenever.
The list covers places all over the country, and some of them are close together so you could plan a trip around a few of these. For example, while there's lots to do and see in the Washington, D.C. area, a lot of the sight-seeing can cost money, but these three don't:
4. Cemetery Walk - Arlington, Virginia
5. Gallery Tour - Washington, D.C.
6. Panda Party - Washington, D.C.
1. Rocket Launch - Cocoa Beach, Florida
2. Flight Check - Kitty Hawk, North Carolina
3. Citizenship Ceremony - Charlottesville, Virginia
And there are so many natural wonders in this country that are worth seeing...
12. Natural Wonder - Niagara Falls, New York
16. Mountain Picnic - Boulder, Colorado
19. Tree Gazing - Humboldt County, California
21. Red Rock Climbing - Sedona, Arizona
23. Diamond discovery - Murfreesboro, Arkansas
...not to mention all of this country's history -- and not just in Washington, D.C....
7. 9/11 Memorial - Shanksville, Pennsylvania
11. Bridge Crossing - Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts
17. Native History - Southwestern Montana
22. Siege Site - San Antonio
25. Historical Hike - Mountain Park, Georgia
