IT IS NOW OFFICIALLY SUMMER.  A few schools are still in session, but no one attending them is still paying attention in class.  Meanwhile the rest of us have already started eating Italian ice and running though sprinklers.  SO THERE YOU HAVE IT—SUMMER!

Summer is all about the weekend trip.  The hardest thing about the weekend trip is knowing what to pack.  Should you bring heels? A light jacket for the evenings? Bug spray?

It is my pleasure to announce the weekend trip series.  For each post there will be a new destination and a new weekend bag full of stuff.  Check out Blogging Barefoot tomorrow for the first stop: The Cabin by the Lake.  (I know that sounds like a horror movie, so I’m going to tell you right now—pack a flashlight.  You never know.)
