You will be about 1 1/2 hrs to Newport RI from Boston. Providence is about an hour from Boston. There's a lot of easy access to surf fishing here in Southern Rhode Island also. Anyone who isn't interested in fishing can spend the day roaming in Newport and touring the different mansions. :) Shoppers paradise and plenty of touristy things to keep family members occupied and happy! Or right down the street from me in Wickford RI you can fish from the docks but Newport will buy you more time to fish. Warm Regards, Deb

There's also the Androscoggin on the NH/ME border which ain't too bad either. I'm trying to remember some of my Vermont streams and for the life of me, I can't. Outside of Burlington in the Shelburne Museum, if you head down closer to Rutland there's several places where you can pick up sections of the Long Trail (I recommend Deer's Leap, a great overlook of Mendon, and good views of Killington and Pico). Plus, really good food in Rutland. And then if you wanna take a side trip to Granville, NY (trust me, not far from Rutland) the Slate Valley Museum is also really neat. Ok, I'm done.
