Hey! An idea....

Let's start our own little "Vacation Reviews". Most of us want a lot of the same things out of a vacation -- family friendly, affordable, clean, fun. I would love to hear where you've been. We just might try it out -- who knows maybe you can get a commission for recommending the place. If anyone has a West Virginia camping spot or cabin they would recommend we're interested in meeting up with some people from North Carolina -- we're missing them!
So, lets get the summer started out with a list of hot, Holiness family/couple vacation spots :o) Give us as much detail as you want and if it is easier redirect us to your blog to give us more. Hey, thanks! Looking forward to hearing from you all.
For starters: Indian Rocks Beach, Florida offers a beautiful, safe, family friendly beach (no thongs or topless women spotted). I, however, did snap a pic of one of the local seniors sporting a lovely brown full coverage one piece. I was taking advantage of a Kodak moment only to be interrupted by this grandmotherly type bending over right in front of me picking up what I suppose was a shell of her interest. I took advantage of the moment and got her pudgy little hiney front and center with the spectacular color of the Gulf as the back drop. Oh, well, couldn't resist, but that is what the roomy beach mostly consist of -- seniors and families. A two bdrm, beachfront condo will set you back a little over a grand, but when you consider the options of cooking your own meals and free entertainment that isn't bad for a week of family vacationing. Island Sands is where we stayed you can find it at Beachdirectory.com. I give it 3 stars!

Bogota Colombia! You can drive and see a Beautiful waterfall, ride a gandola to the top of a TALL mountain and see a breath-taking view from there, and a nice pretty church too, and lots of other pretty views (Including the Andes Mountains!) Go shopping for South American soveniers, and see Neat MARKETS first hand. Have WONDERFUL, yummy, fresh fruit juices, and typical Colombian (and AMERICAN) food, and A FREE PLACE TO STAY...you just have to pay the ticket to get here! WELCOME!
Love, Heather in Colombia =)

Good idea. You can check out my blog right now. I just wrote about Chicago. Not quite the same as the beach, but if you ride the trains and buses you can save tons of money.

Friendsville, TN is always a great place to come! You can stay with friends, run over to Pigeon Forge and Dollywood for the day, see a show, hear some great music and relax in true southern style on my front porch, complete with rockers and porch swing! I'd love to see you again, Wilma Ann! (can I call you that?) See my blog for more details and photos! www.covertscorner.blogspot.com

We have a great place to visit. Kernersville, NC. You don't even have to pay to stay. We can be to the ocean in 3 hours or the mountains in 2 hours. We have the best of both. Or you can just kick back and relax without having to run, run, run all the time.

We are still here. Just too busy to play on the computer much. I will try to get some pictures posted soon.
