Day trips are a good way to get out of the house and have a fun day as a family without all the cost and time of a vacation. We stop for coffee, hot cocoa and a snack and head out on the road. Down south to Tucson, Payson, Prescott Sedona or any of the state parks. We plan a hike, birding tour or guided walk. Stop for lunch and do a little shopping while we are out. Local shops with homemade soaps or jewelry are the best. We return home and then to work and school refreshed and ready for the week.
