I spent many wonderful summer weekends camping at Ludington State Park. Beautiful beach! I'll bet there are tons of people who don't know that the great lakes have some gorgeous white sand beaches with dunes (they are however missing palm trees) But I'll bet I could post some of my sunset pictures on the great lakes and people would think they were tropical beaches. :P

All time favorite is Tulum, Mexico.
I'm not sure I'll ever top that vacation.

My "go to" place is Cudjoe Key, Fl.
We've been there multiple times and love it.
Lazy days on the dock or boat but still close enough to Key West.

Favorite vacation spot? Where was I last? Where am I going next?

I've never really had a bad vacation (unless you count the one that I took with TXME). The places that I've been back to the most are Key West and Cozumel.

Penny and I have not vacationed any place that we would not return, but there are still so many places that we would like to go. There are likely to be beaches involved! 8)

Driving East and lots of places along the way. Lake Jackson casinos, New Orleans, Biloxi, Mobile, Gulf Shores, Destin...

We always enjoy Gulf Shores...but loved Captiva/Sanibel and of course, Key West.

Was very pleased with cruise to Alaska and feel the need to return to Seattle and Victoria, BC. We loved Vancouver Island.

The beautiful beaches of Gulf Shores, Alabama. It's just so pretty. The sand is sugar white with just enough natural areas to offset the commercial areas. Fantastic!
