Southwest Birthday

It feels like Mr. SE and I have been quote the jet-setters as of late: DC one weekend, Pittsburgh the next! It's an understatement that I'm thrilled to spend this weekend her in Nashville doing nothing but relaxing! But on the topic of travel- Southwest is having a spectacular sale and we were lucky enough to take advantage. In honor of their 40th birthday, the airline is offering $40 $80 or $120 fares to their different destinations (based on miles).

So where did we book a trip for such a fabulous fare? Buffalo! You're probably surprised, considering all the warm weather locations that are listed as SWA destinations-- but we've talked about taking this trip for awhile. My mom's side of the family is from western NY and he's never been up to the falls. Our trip is planned for early October, and the weather is sure to be gorgeous! Here's what we have planned:

 Welch's Grape fields in Westfield, NY

 Historic homes in the nearby town of Fredonia

 The Green Arches. Upon driving through, you've passed Brocton.

 

This is where the town is located, for any geography geeks.

 Niagra Falls!

 Made of the Mist- where Jim & Pam so famously tied the knot!

Did anybody else take advantage of this sale? If not- do you have any other late summer/fall getaways planned?
