The Best Articles (Without the Ads)

Great writing, aritcles and beautiful pictures. I love Midwest Living Magazine, but sometimes wonder if I'm paying more for the ads than the acutal articles that appear. This book features great writing (the article on the Spring Green Wisconsin't House On The Rock) and destinations that sometimes get overlooked. (Good test: Read the articles on places that you've already visited. In some cases, they make you want to go back for some little detail you missed.) Well worth it just for reading pleasure, and planning those odd, offbeat vacations that are memorable.
