Confidentially: Woo, Jilli!
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Tom, I'm sure a lot of college towns would fit your criteria this time of year. We had a great time in Athens, GA -- with the students out, it was very quiet. We stayed just off the Atlanta Highway, which, okay, is a fairly standard "outskirts of town" (lots of restaurants, strip malls, the like) -- but you're about 2 minutes drive away from rural areas. Great food options. Some sightseeing but not enough to overwhelm.
I'm not too familiar with the Northeast, but I'm sure you could find somewhere a reasonable distance from your area.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Woo-hoo Jilli!!! !

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I was actually listening to the song while I read this!

That's [privately speaking] terrific, Jilli!
