It’s nearing the end of a hot, hot summer. And likely you’ve been playing chauffeur, shuffling the kids between summer camps and activities or putting in long hours at the office dreaming of a chance to getaway. This summer, you have an official excuse as if you needed one) to grab the gals, pick a vacay spot and just go — sans kids, husbands and work!
August is officially Girlfriend Getaways Month!
Why August? It’s the homestretch of a long summer AND the last month to squeeze in a vacation before fall rates kick in. Author of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Girlfriend Getaways and resident spa girl Lisa Kasanicky has tagged August as Girlfriend Getaway Month because it’s the best time to take advantage of seasonal rates after a summer of juggling family and career obligations. And hey, you’ve earned it, right?
So grab a group of girlfriends and let’s go on a getaway!
