Style Weekly
Richmond's alternative for news, arts, culture and opinion
There are 99 days from Memorial Day to Labor Day, but all those days don't really count. Those sultry, sticky weekdays, when we are encumbered by suits and ties, car exhaust and deadlines, somehow don't mesh with our dreams of long lazy days and even longer ice cold drinks. That's why we tend to think of summer in terms of that glorious notion of free time. Weekends. Fifteen to be precise. That's really what summer comes down to, right?
So we've packaged your summer in 15 weekends that send you everywhere from the clean-air blue-sky mountains to the gaudy and glitzy Atlantic City casinos. We'll take you to the Inn at Little Washington to splurge outrageously and shamelessly. We'll show you how to embrace your inner redneck.
We've designed weekends in town and out; for the eater and the drinker; for the thrillseeker and the laid-back tourist.
You can be anything, do anything you want. That's what summer is all about. Fifteen weekends. Endless possibilities.
