Ever since I saw one of the wives from "Real Houswives of Orange County" vacation at Lake Havsu, I've thought about going there. Until I realized, it's a damn lake. I suppose for people who live within an hour from the ocean, that a lake vacation is novel.

Post Honolulu....NNOOO!!!

My list was pretty accurate. Are they really numbered from your top choice on... or are in no particular order? It's pretty weird that I got Honolulu as number one. I miss home...but don't know if I want to return to Oahu. Here are my Top 10.

1. Honolulu, HI

2. Little Rock, AK

3. Las Vegas, NV.

4. Portland, OR

5. Baton Rouge, LA.

6. Charleston, SC.

7. San Diego, CA.

8. Orange County, CA.

9. Jacksonville, FL.

10. Norfolk, VA.

Default Texas cities: Houston / EP / San Antonio

Wow, I guess I belong in Texas (or Florida):

#1 - Houston
#2 - El Paso
#3 - San Antonio
#4 - Gainesville, FL
#5 - Norfolk, VA
#6 - Memphis
#7 - Austin
#8 - Chorpus Christi, TX
#9 - Orlando
#10 - Tampa

I don't know why I got all warm weather cities. I don't think I really put in that much "need warm weather" type input, as I really do not (although I prefer sun to clouds). Uh, interesting though. I do know I have always thought El Paso (hence my screen name) and San Antonio would be great places for me...never thought about Houston.

Portland, Oregon
Little Rock, Arkansas
Charlotte, North Carolina
Norfolk, Virginia
El Paso, Texas
San Diego, California
Orange County, California
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Dallas, Texas
Fort Worth, Texas
Nashville, Tennessee
Tucson, Arizona
Cincinnati, Ohio
Knoxville, Tennessee
Oakland, California
Long Beach, California
Tampa, Florida
Orlando, Florida
Los Angeles, California
Phoenix, Arizona
Austin, Texas
Albuquerque, New Mexico

San Antonio, Texas
Jacksonville, Florida

The cities in bold are the only ones I'd consider living in, Tucson (ranked 12th) is where I currently live. I've taken this test before and Little Rock was pretty high up there each time. I hate Arkansas as a whole, so the accuracy of this test is questionable.

I got these:

1. Ocala FL
2. Gainesville FL
3. Biloxi MS
4. St. George UT
5. Corpus Christi TX
6. Galveston TX
7. Tallahassee FL
8. Bradenton FL
9. Savannah GA
10. Tuscaloosa AL
11. Bryan-College Station TX
12. Hattiesburg MS
13. Daytona Beach FL
14. Port Charlotte FL
15. Brownsville TX
16. McAllen TX
17. Jackson MS
18. Athens GA
19. Greenville SC
20. Winter Haven FL
21. St. Petersburg FL
22. Charleston SC
23. Beaumont TX
24. Port Arthur TX

It seems the coldest places they picked for me were southern Utah and northern South Carolina.

I wonder why they didn't pick anything closer to Canada?

I love long hot summers and mild winters and for Canada, Toronto is a good choice; we get 2-3 plus months of 80 F weather (not long and hot?) and for cold spells, we normally don't stay below 0 F for more than a week or two.

The entire mid-west and south-east areas shouldn't of even appeared on my list, since it asked which regions I preferred.

Anyway, I retook the quiz and the results are a little better this time:

Baltimore, Maryland
Norfolk, Virginia
Albuquerque, New Mexico
Chesapeake-Virginia Beach, Virginia
Charlotte, North Carolina
Las Vegas, Nevada
Providence, Rhode Island
Phoenix, Arizona
Tucson, Arizona
New Haven, Connecticut
Portland, Oregon
Hartford, Connecticut
Little Rock, Arkansas
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Long Island, New York
Boston, Massachusetts
New York City, New York
Honolulu, Hawaii
Denver, Colorado
Oakland, California
San Diego, California
Worcester, Massachusetts
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Carlisle, Pennsylvania

At least Arkansas isn't in my top 5 any more.
