Boca Raton, other warm vacation spots, a ski guides, genealogical research
At least once before we talked about how vacations could be nearby and might involve only one day off from work. Now this one (Boca Raton) is a bit more extravagant than the local mall for holiday gift shopping, it's interesting to read about people looking for vacation ideas close to home.
Of course for those of us who don't live in Florida, Boca Raton still involves a flight and all the potential delays as do many of our favorite vacations. For example, in Vermont, some popular destinations this time of year are Cancun and Mexico's Mayan Riviera, cruises, the Dominican Republic, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Hawaii, and Costa Rica.
I suppose it's no surprise that Vermonters want to go someplace warm right around now. For those of you who like it cold, this Newsday guide on skiing in the Northeast might help you.
And for those who aren't on vacation yet but have the desire to do some genealogical research, possibly giving you future travel ideas, this article on checking railroad history for clues will be interesting.
