HTH
But the thing is that the places are never really close to the middle of the country. Yes, East and West coasts are great, HOWEVER those of us in the north always have to fly a long distance to reach any of the places - and we have a SMALL airport here in central WI so getting anywhere is at LEAST 2 legs (unless it is Milwaukee (too many summer festivals to make it affordable), Chicago (AGD was there last summer, Rotary had their 100th Anniversary convention this summer), Detroit (wouldn't even CONSIDER that one!) or Minneapolis (that would be a good one with lots to do!). Actually most people LEAVE the city on weekends during the summer - I live in Wisconsin where MOST of the people from Chicago have summer homes!

Like I said, I'm just whining because I REALLY don't like hot weather at all(I keep threatening to move to Alaska!). I'm planning on going in 2007 - and am even changing my check card so I can earn miles with my purchases!
