Travel or bust!

We all love to travel and take vacations. However, the average American doesn’t schedule a vacation every year to get away and get revitalized and rejuvenated. Why? Are we so caught up in staying connected that we forget that we need to take time out for ourselves? We need to spend some playtime bonding with our children. We need to get away with our gal pals and our guy pals and bask in our comradery. We need to go on a romantic getaway with our significant other so we can frolic in our coupledom. We need to check in with unadorned nature and smell the roses, listen to the birds sing and .... briiiiling…brriiiliiinng…that was a text message alert…just a minute....need to text back. Ok, so where was I?

So where can we go with the kids on vacation this year? Let’s see…how about?
