We have a timeshare so rooms are free. And nice. I think flights to St Thomas were like $375-450. I forget. Aruba was more because it’s super close to South America. Like $700-800 I think.

Damn that flight to St Thomas is way cheaper than I thought.
Of course I'm sure it wouldn't be that cheap from SLC compared to you on the east coast.

No idea how that pic got there and how to get it off lol. When I click edit it doesn’t appear.

But it’s a house we may take a look at. Thing is sick on outside. 125-150K into and it could be 1.2-1.7M in a few years.
 
I know a lot of you guys probably live in Utah. To me, my best vacation, and road trip, was across southern Utah, by myself (always loved to travel alone, and meet people and make friends along the way), did the 5 national parks, always able to find "away from the crowd places" in each of those parks. Been saying it for a few years now, still has not happened, but really hope to do it over again with my wife. I really want her to see that country. I know it has to be way more crowded now. Still, while there's time....

And I love road trips.

Did a 3500 mile one through the Northwest a few years ago and did no highways, just two lane roads. Utah-Nevada-Cali-Oregon-Washington-Montana-Idaho-Utah.

Also did two 3500 mile road trips in Europe with my kids the last two years... yep, I've driven 10's of thousands of miles in Europe and it never ever gets old.

Used to take the kids on road trips. Had to go back to NYC for some legal stuff after our car accident. Decided to make a family vacation out of it.

Started in Utah and drove through Wyoming, South Dakota (Crazy Horse Memorial and Mt. Rushmore), Minnesota (went fishing and took the kids to the Mall of America), Wisconsin (Lambeau Field tour and holy cheese), Illinois (visited family that live there), Indiana (Notre Dame), Ohio, Pennsylvania (went to Frank Lloyd Wright’s Falling Water home), New Jersey and finally spent four days back in New York eating pizza, hitting broadway, taking the kids to the Statue of Liberty and Empire State Building and catching up with our friends back there.

Decided to take the roundabout way home too. From New York through New Jersey and Delaware to Baltimore (Annapolis National Cemetery and the Smithsonian in D.C.), Virginia, North Carolina (Outer Banks - which was amazing), Tennessee (zip line through the Smokey Mountains and an amazing ropes course in Gatlinburg), Kentucky, back through southern Illinois and Missouri (we visited Nauvoo and a number of other church sites in that area - Liberty Jail, Independence, Carthage, Far West, etc.), Kansas, Colorado (stopped in Denver for a short time) and finally back home to Utah. It was a LONG trip, but it was a blast.

My wife is big on making memories wherever we go, so even when we drive through someplace we try to find something memorable to do.

We carved out a west coast trip the next summer that took us through Lake Tahoe, San Francisco, the Redwoods, the University of Oregon (my son was a huge Ducks fan at the time and we got to meet some of the football players and tour the training facility and locker room), stayed in a Tree House hotel, went through the Ape Caves in Washington (which was the highlight of the trip), up into Vancouver and went through a national park that had a massive suspended bridge (scared the crap out of me), then back down through Montana (my sister lives there), Idaho (hung out at Lake Couer d’Alene) and stopped for 4th of July fireworks at Idaho Falls before we drove back home.

If we ever do another one, I’d love to hit the southwestern and southern US. New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and probably visit my brother in Georgia while we’re out there. Wouldn’t mind doing North Carolina and Virginia again as well.
