Plan and Book Spring Break Now

Planning to go away for spring break (or February Vacation, or Easter break, or just to get away from snow, slush, wind, and rain? Do it now!
Though you may be just recovering from the holidays, and the kids may be busy with projects, vocabulary lists, and papers, NOW is the time to book your getaway.
May I personally recommend:

The American Southwest: from Arizona (Phoenix and Tuscon are especially nice), to New Mexico (Santa Fe isn't warm, but it sure is pretty), to the beaches or deserts of Southern California, there is something for everyone.

The Colorado Rockies: Out of the mountains you will find the weather to be milder, and the days sunnier. If you are only skiing part of the time stay down in Boulder or go all the way up to Silverthorn or Frisco if you want to do a lot of skiing at Copper, Breckenridge, or Keystone. Don't miss the Denver Zoo, the Celestial Seasonings tour in Boulder, and the Coors Factory Tour in Golden.

Reliable Florida: Skip the mouse and try something different. You will find you and your family better rested when you are done. We especially enjoyed a stay on Anna Maria island and were blessed with warm weather and gulf water. There you can swim, beach snorkel (no coral), explore Tampa Bay(and the Devil Rays if you are late enough, and go south to the manatee rescue center.
