A couple in Ohio has found a foolproof way to pick the destination of their next vacation. They throw a dart at a map of
the U.S., then dart to wherever it lands! Jen and Bob Westerfield have been doing this for the past eight years and haven’t had a bad vacation yet! Their first attempt led them to Marsh Island, Louisiana and since then they have visited Happy, Texas; Zuni, New Mexico; Two Buttes, Colorado; Superior, Nebraska;Circle, Montana; Soda Springs, Idaho and Yuma, Arizona. Many of the places they’ve visited have had tiny populations, so they incorporate nearby tourist destinations. For them, taking a vacation also means taking a chance!
