"Staycationing"

On my way to work this morning I was listening to The Wall Street Journal This Morning on WRTA radio. They had a little segment about the idea of a "staycation". Due to rising travelling costs, some people are deciding to take their time off work at home rather than travelling to other cities or countries. Some of these "staycationers" are planning to make their days at home fun and creative, rather than just firing up the grill and doing house work. Some of them can even "splurge" a little more because of all the money they've saved on travelling costs.

A friend of mine did this recently as well. She, with her daughter and her husband, took little day trips in the region, enjoying different attractions in the region.

It's really true -- there are a ton of things to do in Central Pennsylvania. For local residents looking to spend some great time locally, ILoveAltoona.com is a great resource for planning these out. Our "hidden" Around the Corner page lists many fun places to go. You can also go to thealleghenies.com and other local resources to learn more about fun right here at home!
