The new Vacation may bear the same name as the old Vacation, but it’s actually a sequel, taking place a few decades after the first ill-fated Griswold family trip to Walley World. The first trailer for this new version has arrived and while it has the same title and premise as its predecessor, it bends over backwards to let you know that Ed Helms is the same Rusty Griswold from 32 years ago, all grown up. Can we call this a rebootquel?

AWESOME!  I loved getting all your favorite summer photos.  Some made me smile, some made me melancholy and some even made me LOL.  That went so well, let's change the scenario, this time share your biggest summer bummer pic.  Mine was the HUGE wasp hive directly under our front door.  The picture doesn't do the size justice!!!  Share your misery with me.....

Hey gang, as I looked back at our two super hot days of summer and all the awesome facebook pics, I realized that due to work, vacations and LIFE, I may have missed some that you shared.  SO, I'm asking you to do me a favor and share one of your favorite outdoor activity pics with me.  Would you mind taking a second and doing that?  (choose a pic that's ok if other people see it, lol).  I'd LOVE I
