vacation

Not everyone will get the chance to vacation this summer after all we've been through, but those of us who can should vacation at the Jersey Shore in 2013.

During the holidy break, Diane and I took my Mom and Dad down to Cape May for a day. We checked out some beautifully decorated homes, did a little shopping, and just enjoyed a simple, quiet day.

How many times have you heard "if (insert Presidential candidate here) wins, I'm leaving the country?" JetBlue is now going to help those looking to flee the states if their candidate loses and it will be at no cost to you.

Some things are too cool to pass up...if you haven't done this, put it on your bucket list, and make sure you do it, because it's amazing. What is it?

I'll be away on vacation next week...and while normally the thought of vacation is relaxing, I'm totally STRESSED about it. Turns out I'm not the only one.

Would you believe me if I told you I made it a whole week without cheching my email? Well, amazing as it seems, it's true. I'm not going to lie to you and say I had no contact with work. I checked my phone and I made seven phone calls to work...

Liz and Nancy just got back from a week off. I'll be taking some time soon as well. It's vacation season! In every office around Monmouth and Ocean counties there's an empty desk or two every week. So how are we spending our vacation time...and vacation money?

Vacation season is almost here. We all know that money's been kind of tight lately, so you may be thinking about skipping the trip this year. Before you do, though, there is a way to avoid the airports and plane tickets and still get that well deserved vacation. Do what so many out of state people do every year. Vacation in New Jersey!

We live in one of the coolest places around. It's a top tourist destination. People use their vacation time to come here, so we must be doing some amazing things with our weekends, right? We're already in the midst of all things people travel to get to, so we must be taking advantage of it right?. Wrong.

All this week win a skating session for a family of four at Jersey Shore Arena in Farmingdale if you can answer Matt Ryan’s Nearly Impossible Question. Listen every weekday afternoon at 5:20 to play! A new survey reveals GPS and a DVD player are the #1 and #2 must haves for a family road trip. What is #3? Find out after the jump!

I was at the end of my cruise to the Caribbean when we learned about the cruise ship disaster in Italy. Some onboard our ship were considerably freaked out by it, but it seemed so far away (literally) that I felt oddly disconnected from it. Until today.

I spent the last week in paradise. It was a week of sunshine and temperatures near 80 degrees, palm trees and sea turtles, pina coladas and mai tais. I was convinced that I would immediately move to the US Virgin Islands when I got back from vacation. My friends think I'm crazy...they all said they like having four seasons in a year.
