Take Your Acorn on Vacation

SUMMER ESCAPE-The Palka, Schiff, Kaufman and Parks families take a refreshing boat ride on Lake Ming, Bakersfield, Calif. And after a mostly cool and cloudy Memorial Day weekend, it's heating up in Conejo Valley/Las Virgenes.

SUMMER ESCAPE, TAKE TWO-Jill Gaines of Calabasas enjoys The Acorn and the sun at South Lake Tahoe, Nev. Water destinations are always popular backdrops for "Take Your Acorn on Vacation." So be sure to take us wherever you go. TRIVIA TIME-Where was Abraham Lincoln born? Plenty of us probably guessed the "Land of Lincoln"-Illinois. But we'd be wrong. Eileen Kurit of Calabasas knows that the correct answer is Hodgensville, Ky. And thank you for the history lesson. Whether it's a historical site or Disneyland, take us along. OLD MEXICO-From left to right are Robert, Sheila and Alex Jaffe and Melanie, Allison, Cindy and Mark Edwards are in Manzanillo, Mexico, where they enjoyed snorkeling and baking in the sun. The Jaffes are from Agoura Hills. MYSTERY LOCATION-Oak Park's David, Nicole, Hayden and Ian Johnson are aboard the cruise ship, The Disney Wonder. We have no idea of their exact location. BACK EAST-Linda Tully of Westlake Village and Katie Tully took The Acorn all the way to Plymouth Rock, Mass. where the Pilgrims landed way back in 1620.
