We travel from Georgia through the Carolinas to Virginia, ending near Washington, DC. Along the way we meet a Georgia farmer; talk to painter J. Chris Wilson in Charleston; sail along the Outer Banks of Carolina, and visit rural Virginia, experiencing life in the beautiful southern states.

From New York, the journey up the coast leads into the heart of New England. We visit Yale; spend some time in the 19th century mansions at Newport, RI; tour the coastal fishing and vacation towns of Massachusetts, and then meet a modern entrepreneur in Boston and see her rooftop gardens.
