Make - a. splash! to -- kick... off the unofficial start to summer?
Even though summer doesn’t officially start until a month or so after the Memorial Day weekend, most of us treat this 3-day holiday as if it did mark the onset of the season. Of course, it helps that it’s the first warm long weekend in months, which means barbecues in the back yard, al fresco concerts, picnics in the park, hitting the links – you name it, so long as it’s outdoors! Our 10 best picks for a Memorial Day getaway won’t require extensive travel – or, an extensive budget, for that matter – but will definitely help you have a most memorable weekend.
