Vacations
Oregon Coast: rent a beach house. Read/play board games/go antique or art shopping/visit the aquarium when it's raining; walk/run/kite/frisbee on the beach when it's not. Incredibly relaxing. Good any time of year (once had 64 degrees, sunny and calm on Presidents' Day weekend).
Lake Powell: rent a houseboat. Better with a group. Also rent ski boat and jet skis. Find a secluded finger canyon to park in, and live in your bathing suit. Besides water activities, there's hiking and Indian ruins--watch out for rattlesnakes. In July and August it can be incredibly hot; I think it's better in June and September, though one October trip was fantastic. Not great with very small children--very nervous-making.
