As for family vacations (the official Topic of the Day), I don't really remember us going any places until after we moved to Washington in 1976 (I was 10 years old, by then), but I also can't specifically remember what our first trip might have been. When we moved here, we went trailer camping quite a bit...at the beach, in state parks, but not "real" camping. If it didn't have a bathroom and easy access to stores, we didn't go. We didn't know how to do it and my sister and I, at our young ages (then), didn't want to. So we didn't.
