I love Reno.  I only go once every handful of years though.. if I could afford I'd go every summer.
Other than that I used to enjoy going to the Oregon coast for the summer.  Seaside, Astoria, Lincoln City.. get a nice 2nd or 3rd story room right over the sand and watch/listen to the ocean.. so relaxing.  And check out the little local shops and restaurants.

I heard Astoria's nice.  I actually wanna go, for the hell of it.

I go to the beach about an hour and a half away from here and people are shocked when I tell em I rarely spend any money and have more fun just relaxing on the beach watching the ocean and people.

Yeah, for my emotional, mental, and physical well being, I try to vacation twice an year to someplace I can afford. It's normally during the late spring/early summer and then at the end of the year on my birthday.

2010
late spring/early summer - a Baltic cruise
end of the year - a cruise of the Bahamas and Florida

And that does not include my 40th high school reunion in southern California at the end of this month.

2011
late spring/early summer - a cruise from southern California to western Canada and Alaska.
end of the year - a trip to New Zealand.

So many places unseen. So little time.

Speaking of New Zealand.  I love this.  A 19 hour flight to New Zealand to just hear English again.  19 hours on a plane: anyplace is beautiful. :bouncegiggle:  Lewis Black.

Although, in all honesty, I'd love to visit New Zealand.  I wanna go there and Italy.
