Behind on Mother’s Day? Here’s your (totally thoughtful) backup plan
|
Hello Reader, If your calendar’s been overflowing (join the club), and Mother’s Day somehow snuck up on you, here’s your second chance to make it meaningful. Instead of scrambling for gifts or reservations, start planning a trip that gives you and your mom the one thing you both never have enough of—time together. Whether it’s a weekend road trip, a cozy cabin stay, or a scenic national park you’ve both talked about visiting, this is your sign to hit pause and reconnect. And if you’re the mom in charge of planning and celebrating? Even better. Make it a multigenerational adventure you and your kids will always remember. Bonus: You can get 10% off any activity on Viator with code VIATORAFF10—from wine tastings to walking tours to skip-the-line museum passes. Travel on! Tonya P.S.You don’t need a fancy resort. You need a quiet moment, good coffee, and a view worth remembering. We’ve got ideas that make it easy—and now, 10% cheaper.

Here are the top 3 I’ve narrowed it down to: Arizona – Red rocks, desert hikes, and one unforgettable road trip route. Michigan – Small towns, freshwater beaches, and just enough outdoors to keep teens off their...
Hey there, Reader! Over the past 20 years of planning family vacations—especially the kind that involve teenagers, coolers full of snacks, and playlists on shuffle—I’ve learned that road trips offer something special. The freedom to explore, time to connect, and the chance to actually enjoy the journey. That’s why I created something new:USA Road Tripping —a resource built for families (like mine and maybe yours!) who want to hit the road without hitting a wall trying to plan it all. Here’s...
