I have oft thought of doing the same thing, have contemplated it for about 3-4 years now. But my problem is that there isn't any good weather that is just 350-400 miles south of me. That gets me down to around St. Louis. It is warmer there, and is sometimes warm (like being around 55-60), but it is usually more like 35-40, with the occasional warmer day. Much nicer than here, but one could make the drive only to "enjoy" a rainy, 40 degree day.
Except I would have made it an overnighter.
