With the “starch” steamed out of us, the urge to drape ourselves on the nearest bit of greensward replaces the thought of jamming up the traffic to vacation spots. One advantage of a ‘homegrown” vacation is that every leisure minute can be made to count when it's just a matter of stepping over the threshold to find sun and fun, Your own backyard may be a terrace suitable for alfresco suppers, -or rolling acres with an open fireplace for picnics, or just an infinitesimal plot of green to accommodate the sun -tanning
