I have decided that part of my vacation this year will be spent driving between Las Vegas, Utah and California. I found that it was cheaper to fly into Las Vegas and drive than try and make flight plans between my home and Utah and California.
Part of my driving will take place [...]
I plan my vacation in stages. The first step is finding decent prices for airline tickets. (Well really the first step is to find a quick weight loss solution so that I look good on my vacation!) The second step is to book the rental car. Then I look for hotels [...]

[photopress:disneyland.jpg,full,pp_image] I grew up in California. Disneyland was only 20 minutes from my home. We loved Disneyland. Now that I have moved to the East Coast, Disneyland is much harder to get to. We also want to go on Orlando vacations, but have only been there once. I went with [...]
This is the time of year that my little flock takes vacation. This year we are just taking short trips. We were in upstate New York last week for a couple days and this week we are heading down to Virginia for a few days. My husband is hoping to try and [...]
