Great Fall Getaways
That’ll Take
You Away
by Will Estell
The days
are getting cooler, the leaves are beginning to turn, and the
Friday night lights of small town, Alabama football are all
about us. With school back in session and many of us well
past our summer vacations it’s easy to feel like we don’t have a lot of R & R to look forward to
until the summer of 2012, but not so fast! Hold on to those getaway dreams, because fall can
be the perfect time of year for that long weekend trip that you probably feel like you really
need.
Many of us take a once or twice a year vacation, but if you’re like many others who seem to
be consumed by such real world activities as juggling work, home, fall sports, children’s activities, and don’t forget; school…then you just may need a little more vacation than that once or
twice a year trip provides. I’ve personally found that taking a quick three day weekend jaunt
can be just what the doctor ordered to alleviate some stress and help get us through the speeding weeks of the pre holiday season.
To help you out I’ve compiled a list of great fall getaway destinations that you will be able to
drive in five to eight hours and enjoy immensely once you get there, so start planning, start
packing, and have some great fall fun!
