End of summer/early fall staycation

Did you miss your regular vacation this year?  There's still time for an inexpensive day or weekend "staycation".  Choose a museum, zoo, or "tourist site" in your area.  If there are children in the family seek out a large park with children's playground equipment that the adults can enjoy, too.  (Play and laugh like the kids.)  Pack a picnic lunch you cooked ahead of time, or hit the deli of a supermarket, then head out.  Take time to walk, talk, laugh, look and share.  Enjoyment is the order of the day--not expense.  A slow family walk around your neighborhood, and a stop for ice cream cones makes inexpensive and wonderful memories.  Remember to take pictures.  HINT:  If you live in Colorado plan a day's drive to view miles and miles of golden aspen trees.  Pose the family in front in Colorado's growing gold--wonderful if you e-mail or send picture Christmas cards!  Wherever you live take a scenic drive, relax and breathe deeply.  Enjoy LIFE!
