Finally getting out of my emotionally abusive marriage-- I'm selling my wedding ring and using the money to fund a kick ass solo vacation. I have some ideas for a destination but was hoping for maybe some strangers' input! I'm wanting to keep it in the US only because my passport is expired and I don't want to wait for a new one. I live in Nebraska in case anyone was going to suggest Nebraska-- not that I think anyone actually would actually suggest Nebraska for a vacation.

Use a die, break up the states into 10 5-state groups, and start rolling (re-roll if it lands on 6) the most wins, tournament style.

Fort Collins, CO. Disney's main boulevard is modeled after the downtown, and it has New Belgium and Odell breweries.

Iowa isn't a bad spot. Des Moines is one of the most up-and-coming cities in the US and there's PLENTY of local restaurants and attractions.

Oregon's Yamhill Valley is premier wine country. Portland, Oregon is home to countless micro-breweries. Oregon coast is a great destination

Also a girl I grew up with was just arrested in Alabama for cocaine/pot/opiates being in her system while she was pregnant. So classy.

There isn't alot in Georgia other than humidity and gnats, but if you like waterfalls and stairs. Tallulah gorge is pretty badass.

Northeast. Rent a car and slide on through. Cottages and cabins all over the place, you can hit up boston, albany, and nyc.
bringingaboutArmageddoncanbedangerous
Plus Bostonian food is heavenly
IwillSTOMPyourSTUPIDspiritANIMAL
If you come to Eastern CT and want to visit a casino go to Mohegan Sun and NOT Foxwoods
IwillSTOMPyourSTUPIDspiritANIMAL
Also theres a zipline water park thing called Brownstone in Portland, CT and not far from that is the Dinosaur museum in Rocky Hill, CT
LilSis061016
Yup yup! Boston and NYC are only a few hours' drive apart. We have the ocean (whale watching!), "mountains," history...
theprettylittlefool
seconded! as a Bostonian I can confirm New England is awesome this time of year!
FacemanPeck
If you're from Nebraska you've probably already seen the only things worth coming to South Dakota for.
renifererop
I think I have seen all there is to see in SD- even the corn palace
FacemanPeck
Oh. Someone should have told you not to waste your time there...
LeastInterestingManInTheWorld
Southeast CT is all right. There's the sub base, the aquarium, the historic harbor, two casinos...
IwillSTOMPyourSTUPIDspiritANIMAL

LeastInterestingManInTheWorld
I'm closer to the middle of the state, but it's not a big state, lol. I do prefer Mohegan to Foxwoods.

Good local food places...easy access to NYC or Boston or Providence or Newport
LeastInterestingManInTheWorld
New Haven pizza, if that's your thing...
LilSis061016
Paul's Pasta in Groton, Abbott and Costello's in Noank (lobster and clams). Lots of good vineyards in the area, too.
