How to take more day trips
It made me
peaceful 
"I love day trips!"
How I did it: Just chose a location that was within a reasonable distance, looked it up on the internet to find neat places to visit that were within my budget, packed up the kids and just went!
Lessons & tips: If you have no navigating gadgets...maps, maps, maps! And when traveling with kids...snacks, snacks, snacks! Try not to cram too many activities into that one trip. You'll get overwhelmed and not enjoy much of anything.
