National Trust for Historic Preservation List

The NTHP recently released its annual list of top 12 in the US.

They are:

Friday Harbor, Washington State
Aiken, SC
Appalachiola, Fl
Columbia, Ms
Crested Butte, Co
Redwing, Mn
Fort Davis, Tx
Portland, Or
Portsmouth, Or
Portsmouth, NH
San Juan Bautista, Ca
Wilmington, NC

I've been to Friday Harbor, Portland, Or, Portsmouth, NH, and Wilmington, NC. I sespecially like Wilmington's efforts to portray life on the homefront during WWII. There is even a tour of it available.

Places I probably won't get to visit because of the gas prices. Thanks a lot, Big Oil!!! --RoadDog
