4. Avoid Over Packing
Over packing should be avoided on any vacation, but is particularly important on short trips. I am guilty of over packing in the clothing and snack department. The truth of the matter is, you need only a few changes of clothes for a weekend trip. As far as snacks go, no need to pack the whole refrigerator, a small cooler and a few snack items will suffice for a two-park day trip.
