Poll: Where should I go on my next vacation?

[Raising Heel]

Here we go! Thanks for all the suggestions, guys. I've narrowed down the list to 10 choices since that's the maximum allowed in a poll. The suggestions I excluded were primarily due to concerns about weather and/or logistics (Glacier National Park, for example).

You can select up to 3 options, but you can't change your vote and you can't see the results until after you vote. The poll closes in 7 days. The poll option with the most votes will determine where I spend my next vacation. In the event of a tie, I get to cast the deciding vote. The winning choice will determine the timing of my vacation, likely April or May. Hopefully, the voting will be free of Russian interference and won't be skewed by millions of illegal voters (yay topical jokes!).

In case you want to educate yourself on the choices, I've included links below that provide a brief overview of each option. Thank you for your patronage. You can pick up your "I Voted" sticker on the way out.

• Acadia National Park / Bar Harbor (Maine)
• Bourbon Trail (Kentucky)
• Buffalo National River (Arkansas)
• Catalina Island / Channel Islands / Joshua Tree (So. California)
• Chattanooga (Tennessee)
• College Baseball Trip (North Carolina/Virginia/D.C./West Virginia)
• Northern Forest Canoe Trail (NY/VT/NH/ME)
• Olympic National Park / Seattle (Washington)
• Outer Banks (North Carolina)
• Sanibel Island (Florida)

I voted, and not just for my own suggestion. You're welcome.

So, RH, when are you going to tell us your pick?

I'm gonna wait until a few more people vote. I wanna be surprised.

That's why I decided to allow 3 picks. Kinda evens things out a little more instead of everyone just voting for their own ideas. But thank you, for reals.

By "vacation," you mean "Pokemon hunting adventure," correct?

Cast my votes. Man, this was a lot tougher decision than I thought it would be. These are some really great options. I'm excited about all of them. Interesting to see the tally so far, which are pretty well distributed. In the end I decided to pick the places I've never visited.

i voted for Olympic National Park / Seattle because it's the farthest away.

Last spring I went on a minor league baseball tour, may do it again this year. If you do the college baseball tour, you might try to work in a minor league game also, they're usually a good time.

You only gave me two good choices, so that's all I could vote for. I'm trying to make sure you have a good vacation instead of going to some shit hole. Excuse me for trying to make your life more enjoyable.

One more thing. I didn't get a notification that I was tagged in that post. Has @Raising Heel got me on ignore or has THI finally figured out that his posts aren't good enough for a notification?

That's because:

1. I don't give a damn.
2. All the choices suck.

Putin has already hacked your account and voted for you.

Well, I hope he picked someplace nice for RH.

 

[Raising Heel]

How do I vote again?

Just scroll back up to the top and click on two more choices. Or were you being sarcastic? I can't even tell anymore.

All I see is the voting results, can't vote again.

 

[Raising Heel]

Another satisfied customer.

But really, should anyone be surprised that @coolwaterunc (hates to leave his house), @TarHeelNation11 (hates to leave NW Atlanta), and @tarheel0910 (hates to leave this message board) are the ones who think these options aren't enjoyable?

 

[tarheel0910]

@tarheel0910 (hates to leave this message board)

Is that a challenge or is it hyperbole?

 

[Raising Heel]

You only gave me two good choices....

Also, I'd like to remind you that your only suggestion was that I go visit a giant toilet. And now you're complaining there weren't any good choices. C'mon, man.
