    ok so I'm on life tilt, need a vacation but not sure where to go.

    guidlines

    -can't be outside the US as I don't have a passport atm(waiting for it to come in mail)

    -3 to 5 days would be ideal

    -no real budget, but nothing over 5k I guess

    -nothing to do with poker, preferably somewhere where I won't even think of poker or be near my laptop.

    -I will be going alone

    -I need to be able to go asap, like sunday preferably

    -i don't ski/snowboard so somewhere where it isn't snowing would be nice

    I'll do something nice for anyone whose idea(s) I pick.

    Sounds like you're going to Hawaii to me, although 3 to 5 days is a little short for a trip there.

    They have some interesting locations for the 2009 PDGA Tour.

    http://www.pdga.com/2009-pdga-tour-schedule

    If you are wanting to chill, Scottsdale would be nice. If you want to get out and enjoy some night life or the beach then I would choose Southern Cal. They have a number of great courses scattered between LA and Santa Cruz.

    If you are looking for a little peace and tranquility, why not take a train ride? Do a Rocky Mountain train tour, or, (looking at some train tours), take one of the Alaska train tours. Pretty sick scenery in my opinion.

    Wichita Falls is beautiful any time of year. I will be there for about six minutes next Wednesday. One of my favorite dining options in the area is the Carl's Jr. under HWY 287.

    It's also very close to other tourist magnets like Lawton, OK and Vernon, TX. Excellent choice.

    Lawton, OK

    This place is the stone cold nuts. If you ever get a terminal illness, move there immediately. 12 months will feel like five years.

    LOL.

    Really though, Vegas...If it were me I would want to get away from a ton of people. Do you fish? I dont know if anywhere is in season right now but that's what I would be doing...if I wasnt snowboarding somewhere that is. I say wait for your passport and take a trip to British Columbia. You need a passport for canada now right?

    hawaii is summer all year round (well the oahu anyways, i.e. waikiki, honolulu).. it rains a bit every day, but its tropical type shit. lived there for 6 years, wouldnt live there again, but im fairly certain aside from a cruise or a euro-trip there is nothing better short term. best beaches in world, nice resorts, different culture experience. tons of tourist bitches looking to get dicked down (even the 18 year old ones on vacation)

    You should definitely wait and come with us to spain. My buddy and i are leaving on the 1st to head over to europe if you want to join. Starting in italy then going up through germany,amsterdam,belgium, france, before finally meeting up with Clay in Spain.......

    Going to be a pretty sick time. (understatement of the year)
