Hey, @puravidaville.

If it weren't for a lot of corruption on all levels of government, where people have more of a tendency to look away than do something (probably because it's too easy to end up missing and/or dead), and then the drug cartels, which have pretty much taken over everywhere now down there (where they used to stay away from the tourist areas), along with other logistical issues, Cancun would be great.

Funny thing is, my wife has mentioned Tennessee a couple of times. We know a family who lives there, but they're more friends of friends. Plus, it's a little farther east than I'd like to go. But if you like it, I probably should look into it more. Except for Utah, I've not lived in a landlocked state myself, and while we might make it over to the coast two or three times a year, it's still nice to have the variety.

Along with mountains, lakes, rivers, streams, forests, valleys, etc. If they'd stop taxing the daylights out of things and allow people to use their property more and some other things, we might not leave Oregon, just go somewhere that's a little drier. My wife has sinusitis and allergies and could probably stand a little drier weather and more sunshine.
