[Mockery]

So, I've been wanting to get out of town for the holidays and my birthday this year since nobody's gonna be around anyway, but plane tickets are way too expensive at the moment. With that in mind, I figure I can at least drive somewhere to get away for a while, but I'd like to go some place I haven't already been. Knowing that I live in Los Angeles, do any of you have any suggestions for places to go check out for at least a few days? Doesn't matter if it's far away, but I'd like to keep the driving within 8-12 hours or so if possible. I'd drive a little farther if the place is interesting enough though. I've already been to San Diego and San Francisco btw, so no need to suggest either of those.
