Ever just jump in a car<br />
and hit the open road? Without<br />
meticulously planning<br />
every last detail of the trip<br />
with a strict itinerary? Sans<br />
direct course from Point A<br />
to Point B? Without figuring<br />
out where you’re going<br />
to stay on a night-to-night<br />
basis? Without the comforts<br />
of home? A true getaway?<br />
Some trips require planning<br />
to get the most out of<br />
your time and money. But<br />
there is something exhilarating<br />
about just winging it.<br />
Nothing can get in the way<br />
of following whims. There<br />
is no need to be somewhere<br />
else in a few hours. It is exploration<br />
and discovery and<br />
freedom and folly at its best.<br />
That is our focus for 22nd<br />
Century Media Southwest<br />
Chicago’s 2018 Vacation<br />
Photo Contest. And we’re<br />
not giving you much time to<br />
think about it. We just want<br />
you to grab a photo, short<br />
notice, and send it our way<br />
by noon Friday, May 4.<br />
And while the details in<br />
between are up for grabs,<br />
the destination in this case<br />
is clear: 22nd Century Media’s<br />
annual Summer Fun<br />
Guide, which is set to be<br />
published in the May 17<br />
issue of The Lockport Legend.<br />
As always, we will<br />
publish the area’s best vacation<br />
photo — as determined<br />
by the publisher’s staff —<br />
on its cover.<br />
This year’s theme is “road<br />
