Staycation : A vacation that is spent at one's home enjoying all that home and one's home environs have to offer; A vacation spent close to home.
Remember Dirty Dancing? Back in the day the Catskills, and much of the Hudson River Valley was the place to spend a summer. Many of those grand hotels still exist, just not as grand as they were back when Jennifer Grey did a little dirty dancing. Given the changes in our economy related to petrol prices it will be interesting to see if New Yorkers rediscover this gem as the desire to find places close to home becomes de rigeur and the staycation enters the cultural lexicon.
Favourite words like Staycation have made some of our ordinary days extraordinary - from time to time we'll share some more of them with you and we stumble upon them!
