Should you accept it...[/h2]
A couple years ago an innmate and myself put together a list. I can't recall if her list was the same as my list in length, but my list was "100 things to see/do within 100 miles of this B&B"
It began as 50 things to see and do and grew from there as we challenged ourselves to go further out seeking cool sites of interest.
Now posting this in one fell swoop really defeated all the hard work we put into it. But I think that was what we did, on our blogs and websites, maybe, I can't recall now.
So from that excel spreadsheet - I am following suit of that Craigend B&B in Scotland (I encourage you to visit their FB page) and doing a blog post (one per week, not one per day on Facebook like they did which I really loved following!) of 100 things to do/see within 100 miles of our B&B.
This includes HOW FAR and a google map from our B&B to the site of interest. A link with contact info and a disclaimer stating to call first as this innformation is provided for travel planning only. Call for hours of operation.
The reason I am not JUST posting on FB, even though that would be miles easier, is that I want the SEO from this labor intensive operation. I want the link love and people to find us via searching Google.

Here is the challenge, you knew it was coming... ARE YOU UP FOR IT?[/h2]
The blog posts are simple, a photo, content about the site, location, map, and links. I recommend you put your thinking cap on and compile a list of sites near you first, you will be amazed at how many you can come up with:

- A local creamery for homemade ice cream?
- A special walk in a park?
- A farm
- An historical landmark
- Unique building?
- George Washington Slept here
- Recreation
- Quirky sites
- etc
