Get The Jump On Your 6/23 – 6/29 Plans.
Time to start cashing in some of those vacation days you've been meticulously hoarding all winter.
You've got camping trips, tubing excursions, road trips, lazy days at the pool, and too many trips to the snow cone stand to count ahead of you. In other words: Now that it's the first official week of summer and all, you've got some major planning to do.
You don't have to cram your entire summer's worth of fun into one weekend though. Space it out. Pace yourself. You've got the whole summer ahead to get it all in.
We get it though, the prospect of an entire summer's worth of planning can be a bit overwhelming. On that front, we'll do you a solid and help plan the week ahead. Y'know, that way you can focus on the bigger picture.
