Travel & Getaways From Kim Knox Beckius, your About Travel & Getaways Editor Greetings, Travelers! Stressed out at work? You may not be able to afford not to take a vacation! Time away can soothe your soul, enhance your sense of well-being and improve your relationships. Our Guides have ideas this week to help you plan a healthy escape. ~Kim Bond with Your Kids on a Colorado Family Adventure Colorado isn't just a winter destination for families that ski. Fly into Denver this summer, rent a car, and treat your family to a bonanza of memorable adventures in the Roaring Fork Valley: whitewater rafting, river kayaking, stand up paddleboarding, ziplining over a river and dining at farm-to-table eateries. If you time your trip right, you can even find affordable accommodations in Aspen.
