I have some extra time in February 2018 and would love to take a mini vacation. I am on the East Coast and willing to spend $1k to $2k on the vacation. Preferably in the lower end of that range. Give me some ideas!
If you book over a month ahead, you can fly to almost any world capital now for under $1,000 round trip. Nairobi? Under $800. Mumbai under $700. Bangkok under $600 , from JFK. Ouagadougo, Burkina Faso? $833 (Feb 25, 8 nights, Turkish Airlines, free hotel in Istanbull on stopover).
Throw a few things in a duffel bag and stay in hostels. The whole trip for less than a thousand.

go to cheap carribean, and see home much an All Inclusive vacation to the Dominican Republics Punta Cana or Bayahibe region is going for. food and drinks, a nice beach, what more can you ask for out of a vacation?
Keep in mind, if you take this vacation during school mid winter recess or (17-24 of feb), the rates will go up.
How about San Antonio and Austin? We spent a week there last February and had a wonderful time. Inexpensive airfare and reasonably priced hotels. Weather was in the 70's and lovely for walking around.

Weather can be also in the 20's, tho this is a nice destination with lots to do (I prefer during Christmas Lighting Trail (Hill Country TX))
I do Valentine's Day in Loveland, CO (where the weather can also be 70F or 20F)
For nice weather (usually) I do San Diego
LV / Death Valley I wait till Wild Flowers (March / April)
Feb is a bit tough to find special events / climate (but they exist)
