We are in the middle of summer and should be planning or
enjoying our summer holidays. With the
incredible weather upon us, this may be the year you decide to stay put and
enjoy some of the local delights. With
the banks increasing the prime interest rate by a quarter percent, money may
start getting a little tight. This is
when you have to be creative and look for ways to entertain your families
without breaking the budget.
While it is wonderful to travel and see other parts of
Canada and the rest of the world the bills still have to be paid. There is no
point to increasing the debt load for a one or two week vacation only to get
stressed about how you will pay the bills when the credit card statements come
in.
Depending on where you live there can be many enjoyable day
trips that cost little or nothing that are quite enjoyable. Recently a client told me of a Sunday drive
turning into a bonus Pioneer Village type scenario out around
Kitchener-Waterloo area. St Jacobs
offers a wonderful experience of stepping back in time with their farmers’
markets, while Prince Edward County offers some amazing wineries to visit. With the internet there is no end of
possibilities if you do a little research.
There are many places that are within an easy day trip or a one
overnight adventure.
Get outside the normal box and make this a memorable year
to explore in your area. You may
surprise yourself and your family with some great new memories made in your own
back yard, so to speak, after all Ontario is yours to discover.
