Some of the short stories and novellas by Jim Harrison and Ernest Hemingway set in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan made the place seem like the kind of place with an interesting culture coupled with natural beauty.

I'm really not a cold weather person, though I'd go. Definitely.

Sure
They had a billboard blitz here in Illinois to visit Wyoming and Michigan all the time advertises to visit

believe it or not college football games espicially LSU at night
the night games always inspire me to go and visit that location and I am not even a huge sports fan

I remember watching the summer of sam too and for some reason I too was interested in the location of NYC in particular Manhattan must have been some really good filming

Even not being a sports fan, you'd be surprised at a home game in Death Valley. Especially if we play Florida or Alabama. You'd think some people really have tiger blood..

Boston due to all of the history there. I'm hoping to visit next week when I'm on my way back from Burlington.

Disney World. I use to love those commercials and than we finally got to go and I left unimpressed. Nothing like I imagined.
