What I'm Doing on my Summer Vacation Write Off

The Bottom Line Open to anyone and everyone, all categories, as long as it has to do with summer.

Every one has written something about Summer Vacation at some time in their lives, perhaps even more than once! As summer fast approaches, even though I no longer have the entire summer off (…sigh…) as I once did years ago, there are still fond memories and long weekend trips already in the works.

Every summer as a kid, I spent out in California and there were traditions that were always upheld- going to Disneyland, San Diego Zoo and visits to Yosemite National Park. As an adult, there seems to be more time for work and less time for play in the summer, but it's still nice to dream, perhaps even plan ahead for weekend trips and family activities.

As a salute to summer and those who have their summers off, I propose a toast (of sorts) in true Epinions fashion- a Write-Off, of course. Share a favorite summer movie, a favorite for pleasure summer reading, a great summer vacation spot, hotel or attraction, even the best self-tanning cream. As long as whatever you review has something to do with summer, you’re in!

The rules are simple- anyone can join, all categories open, just keep it on the Summer Side. Let me know once you have posted a review either through e-mail or with a comment so that I can link your review here. I’m hoping that this won’t be too much of a bust, but if it is, so be it. It’s time to break out the sunscreen and start reviewing!
