I think Kuzyo was asking why: this.each(function() { …part of the code worked when: var vacation = this; …didn’t.

This is just a misunderstanding about this. this is the context that the current function is executing in. In the this.each part, this is the jQuery plugin. In the iterating function, however, this is the individual DOM element that the jQuery object passes in.

Another example of why you need to learn javascript and not just jQuery. (Not accusing you of this; just a general observation.)
