I have a couple ideas in mind, but I'm open to pretty much anything. One of my stranger ideas was to take a trip to Canada, specifically to drive the Dempster Highway between Dawson and Inuvik. I think it'd be a neat feather in my hat to have driven across the Arctic Circle, in addition to have driven to the "end of the road," as well as being able to appreciate the subarctic climate in its full summer glory. Similarly, I could take the Dalton Highway in Alaska from Fairbanks to Prudhoe Bay, which, on top of all the other stuff, would allow me to dip my toes in the Arctic Ocean. The main issue with this, then, would be the legality of renting a car and driving it on these highways(some rental companies don't want you to do this), as well as finding a traveling companion to ameliorate the cost somewhat. So, there's that.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, another option is to go the Keys with a couple of buddies and visit the in-laws. The advantage to this is that I'll be vacationing in a subtropical climate, with my friends, and all we'll do is lie out in the sun and get drunk. I mean, that's a pretty sweet vacation. Plus, my in-laws like me and I like them, so it'd be a funtastic time.
So, those are the two main ideas. Anyone else have an idea? I can afford a couple grand if need be, so don't be bashful when suggesting locales/activities.

I did it last year with a couple buddies and had an absolute blast.
Jackson Hole in Wyoming also makes for a great vacation with some buddies.

Where you can live like a king for 100 American dollars, though the most important: Where you can get an open bar for 8 bucks American!
Only draw backs, not speaking the language oh and you may get kidnapped by some left wing radical group trying to bring Marxism to the country.
So... I can't really suggest any place to go. 
I can't get into any clubs or any cool shit like that, but hey, hammered is hammered.

I was in London 8 years ago in April, and it was a lot of fun. If I were going back to Europe, though, it'd be to Germany (probably Berlin).
I was there roughly the same time, that was before the rumblings of police state-ism, the Iraq War and the chav epidemic.
Also, when I went, the flight messed bad with my bowels and I couldn't poop for three days.

I feel obliged to show you my part of Germany. Don't make me hijack your plane.
