| • Ogden, oasis for frugal, vacationing families |

Gas prices have risen 19 percent since last year, according to motorist group AAA's Web site. Yet, the White House recently released a statement opposing a Senate bill to give an extra 0.5 percent pay increase to military personnel in 2009. So, how is a military family expected to honor the American tradition of family vacations as cost of living prices outpace salary increases? |
