More Americans Will Travel

How quickly summer arrived and Americans with travel plans will increase with July fourth ahead. Suggestions with Jesse Tam are road trips from Seattle metropolitan along Interstate 5 north to Canada or head south on I-5 to Oregon along the coast and into California.  Cheaper gas is allowing us to spend pennies saved at the pump on other activities.

A stronger economy and jobs is helping to boost the number of planned getaways over what is traditionally the most traveled holiday period of the summer.  If the roads seem a little more congested, it's because they are. Among those traveling, nearly 85% are hitting the highway, a 0.7% over last year.  Hotel prices and airfares will increase slightly this year.  

What are you summertime plans?  Whether it is a short getaway or flight across the skies, explore and take time to see the world.  Learn from each experience new sights. A place to refresh from the daily life is viewing the Olympic mountains and Peninsula.     http://jessetam.com/
