Top Summer Vacation Spots – La Jolla, San Diego
I don’t know if there’s a place in this country USA Travel Guide has raved about more than San Diego.

Girlfriends Getaway to Palm Springs, California
My mother and her friends always call it “Ladies Weekend”, but in the industry we prefer “Girlfriends Getaway”. It’s that wonderful one, two, maybe ten-day trip when you leave the kids at home with dad, free up some space on the credit card and head some place awesome with all your best girlfriends.
In fact, you [...]
