I've always wondered why people that start questions like this don't "share" first:eek:
Dallas - because it's my home town.

Chicago sometimes....only during the fireworks at Navy Pier...
Cities in Missouri I like Springfield, Joplin and Bronson just because they have alot of fun things to do...
I like Gatlinburg Tennessee because it's a quiet little tourist town just outside Pigeon Forge and I hung out there for a week and went into the Smokies and the Indian resevation and I had a blast...people were SO friendly and everyone seemed like they knew you....great time I recommend going there if you have the time
I like Virginia Beach just because of the ocean...the tourist there are ALL snobs and most wouldnt give you the time of day...the locals are cool though and the night life on the beach is a blast...just be on your best behavior though they dont tolerate much of anything... also a must see...
those are the top ones I list but I have been just about everywhere...
OH I forgot a couple...
Mackinac island and Traverse City Michigan and most of the West coastal side (like Grand Haven and South Haven) these places are extremely nice and most are very quite and are good/great vacation spots....
The farther north you go the cleaner Lake Michigan is and it's very nice....I used to live in a smal town called Arcadia and we try to go back there once a year and the swimming is always nice...
Holland Michigan has the Tulip and Cherry festivals and those are always nice to go to....busy though
ah i could fill a thread with things I have done but i'll leave room for others...

I'll be down in Dallas in a few weeks. Hope to have a little time to walk around and see the city a bit.

sorry about that, there is a lot of stupid stuff going on these days here... not the place to vent, I apologize... here is a good one.

Hey now, I resemble that remark!
Brian, isn't there a late model Honda Accord in a junkyard down there that will attest to that statement?

Of all the cities I've been to, I liked Salt Lake City the best. I think I would like Denver a lot, too.

I like New York city, it is one of the best tourist place in the vacation and it has good hotels and accommodations.

Probably Dunedin. Christchurch is up there, but it has a few problems (street racing being foremost). Dunedin is a fairly small town, but not short on fun, with a large proportion of its population made up of students from University of Otago (quite a prestigious university in the world scale, and New Zealand's first). I'm looking at a degree there, and for the weekend fun, which usually involves the odd burning sofa in the street.
Apart from that, Christchurch will always be home.

Oh yes, and I think the 2nd wreck was violent enough to hide the damage from the first wreck (it was only 6 weeks before, so it should blend in nicely). The ironic thing was both were at same intersection -- about 30 miles outside of Dallas... Dallas itself has been kind to me so far.
We're not all insane down here, but look out for a blue Subaru :)
