One last trip
School is beginning to start in Georgia. Cherokee County began on Tuesday. Other counties begin this Monday. You still want to take a quick trip but don't know where to go?
ProQuest and EbscoHost use all sorts of magazines to get their articles. You can select one magazine to scroll through! I went to ProQuest, selected the Publications tab, typed in Travel (that limited the magazine search) - 15 titles came up. Among the titles were Travel & Leisure, Arthur Frommer's Travel, and Travel Holiday.
You may not have time to travel but these articles can whet your appetite for the next trip!
