Staycation

Wow, what a weekend it's been.

I was going to write about this past weekend with my brother's new baby's bris and sholom zochor (which was fun, exciting and tiring - btw the baby's name is Yisroel Meir) but I just Googled the word 'staycation' (which is a word that I started following a few days after I came up with the idea for www.dontgotravel.com when my wife told me that ABC news was doing a piece on the concept) which has taken this posting in an entirely different direction.
When I first Googled the word 'staycation' I ended up with about 35,000 listings and now when I went to check, it has gone up to 152,000 listings (this is in less than 2 weeks).
I think that this means that I am on to something and that I have got the right idea. Now it is time to start bringing traffic (well I guess that the site has to be up first).

This is a concept that though it is in its infancy is growing by leaps and bounds. I know that you all are dying to hear what the concept is exactly and waiting patiently for the site to go up. Well, it is a few more weeks till the site goes live so in the meantime I do owe you all an explanation of what will be on the site and what the purpose is. I'll keep you all waiting only one more day. Tomorrow I will start explaining the site and what you will be able to do there once it is up.

In the meantime - Keep On Walkin'
