vacation

What is there to do in Buffalo? If you ask yourself this a lot, maybe it's time you branch out and take a mini weekend vacation close by your home. It's time to explore and go see what else is out there; and luckily for you, Buffalo is neighbors with some really interesting spots. ...

A few weeks ago, tracking for Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation was supposedly in the toilet. Early reports suggested that Tom Cruise’s fifth outing as super-spy Ethan Hunt was not getting people excited. This would be the end, the experts said, of a franchise that has kept Cruise’s career surging forward for the past two decades. Well, that was apparently a big load of crap because Rogue Nation opened well and opened in the same ballpark as the rest of the franchise. Even with inflation differences, this series keeps on hitting the same box office sweet spot.

Genius! Ever need just MORE space in your suitcase? If you're anything like us, you probably over pack but we still need all the room you possibly can. In fact, most times we take two suitcases.

In this artistic, silent movie, Dan explores beaches on the Gulf coast of Florida!

As Americans, we tend to not take all the vacation time we're afforded by our employers.   I definitely fall into that category, and it's mostly because I don't have gobs of money to throw at airfare to bring me some place cool! :)

What at first seemed like a silly idea for a reboot/sequel has already proven itself as incredibly promising with just a couple of trailers — a new trailer for Vacation has arrived, and it’s just as funny as the previous ones (although it features less of Chris Hemsworth’s, um, area). A new generation of Griswolds hit the road for Walley World, and the results appear to be even more disastrous than the original gang’s vacation attempts.

The new Vacation may bear the same name as the old Vacation, but it’s actually a sequel, taking place a few decades after the first ill-fated Griswold family trip to Walley World. The first trailer for this new version has arrived and while it has the same title and premise as its predecessor, it bends over backwards to let you know that Ed Helms is the same Rusty Griswold from 32 years ago, all grown up. Can we call this a rebootquel?

Harold Ramis, the star of 'Ghostbusters,' writer of 'Animal House' and director of 'Caddyshack' and 'Groundhog Day,' has died at the age of 69 in Chicago. Ramis had been suffering from autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis and had been in declining health since 2010.

Just when you thought 'Community' ensured Chevy Chase would be out of our hair for a while and the Ed Helms continuation of National Lampoon's 'Vacation' franchise had collapsed, in comes ABC with a TV reunion of the famous road trip family's parents, Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo!

If you are planning a trip out west this summer, you may want to try this, but please, remember to clean up after yourself!

There are a lot of great local spots, but I'm thinking more of going away, finding somewhere special or some place that's really happening.

If your answer is yes, you are not alone.
