Where would you go for...
 
a combo seventh wedding anniversary/birthday trip in the U.S.? Been toying with going to Europe, but thinking of all the fabulous places right here at home and wondering where to go. Trip would be 8-10 days in either January or May, or possibly somewhere in between. :-) Just looking for some ideas...

In January:

Hawaii

Florida west coast or keys

Arizona

New Mexico

California

In May

Utah

Colorado

Delmarva

Outer Banks NC

or any of the January choices

Yeesh, that's a bit of a spread.

You like skiing/fallingonarseinsnow and that type of vacay? Go to Colorado. If you suck, go to Aspen for Buttermilk (lots of green trails); if you're good, go to Jackson Hole, Wyoming; if you're interested in how far the dollar has crapped out, go to Whistler in Canada.

If you want skiing and cultural stuff, go to New Mexico. If you want to flop on beach, wait until May and go to Belize.

@emalloy - good list. hadn't heard of the delmarva peninsula.

@bigruss - LOL Belize is a thought. Hmm

@travelbuff - that's my style, but unfortunately not my budget. :)

Delmarva is that little piece of land that is on the coast of Delaware, Maryland and Virginia, north of the bay bridge, think of Chincoteagur.
