Hello, and welcome to the Friday edition of Jack's Back! Alright, so that sounds like a bad 80's flick. I'm in a mood today. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and I'm…sitting at my window watching wistfully because I'm tied to a computer. All right, that's a little melodramatic. I mean really, who can complain about getting to blog and call it work? My friend's son does it and they call it goofing off. I try not to rub that in too hard…
Anyway, on to plans for the weekend. I'm taking the kids and heading up to Letchworth State Park this weekend to hike-and maybe even take a dip in the pool, if it's warm enough! State parks are a great way to slip in a fun filled family outing without having to break the bank to make it happen. They're free to the public, usually filled with lots of cool things for the kids to do and fraught with peril in at least one spot (you know the one-where the kid's going to go down the cliff if they keep hanging over the edge?) so no one can call it boring.
If you're looking for a cheap way to enjoy the great outdoors this weekend I strongly recommend typing "State Parks" into the Google search engine and see what you can find for your local area. Pack a picnic, grab the swim floaties if your kids aren't proficient swimmers and stick a glove, a bat and a ball in the trunk of your car. I promise you hours of enjoyment.
